UPDATED: DEC 28, 2021 16 ounce can. Pours a somewhat cloudy gold with a nice white head. Aroma of citrus and pine. Taste is grapefruit, tropical, and pine. Excellent.

UPDATED: DEC 3, 2021 Can pours a little unclear blonde with nice head retention and lacing. Very piney and resiny hop profile, bready. Big grapefruit, pine, honey, bran bread flavors. Long sticky hops remain. A real classic DIPA. Spot on for the style, definitely one of Alpine's best.

UPDATED: NOV 21, 2021 Citrus and rind. Great potent hop aroma. Clear golden pour with good head and lacing. Tangerine and grapefruit. Wonderful profile. Some booze. Can from Total Wine--I can only imagine what this is like a little fresher. Can.

UPDATED: NOV 20, 2021 pretty good stuff for 9 percent, doesn't feel too heavy while drinking it. yum, tasty hop flavor. solid beer.

UPDATED: OCT 5, 2019 Big bottle from Albertsons in Dana Point. Clear-ish copper gold pour with big dank hoppy boozy aroma, and assertive malt too. Nice. Taste follows. Sharp bitter bite up front but mellowed by big bready malt and juicy sweetness. Good amount of carbonation and a lasting alcohol warmth and bitter finish. Very nice.

UPDATED: SEP 23, 2019 Tap at Cap Hop. Pours a gold tilted towards orange with a white head. Aroma of tropical fruit - mango? And maybe mild citrus. Med body. Flavor is earthy/fruity. Grassy? Pretty dry. Quite hoppy, but not harsh and biting. Nice stuff.

UPDATED: JUN 20, 2019 Near clear golden orange. Bright citrus, mango, pine on the nose and flavor. Hoppy as heck, with a deft supporting clean and crisp malt backbone. 4+

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2019 Bottle, pours a lightly hazy copper golden with medium head. Nose and flavor are Cali grass, pine, herbals, tangerine, booze, and grain. A little thin and definitely hot but thats expected. More lower alcohol stuff in the future please.

UPDATED: JUN 10, 2019 Draft. Pours golden orange with a white head. Mild fruity hops, just a little bitterness, some grassy notes, light resinous notes, and just a hint of booze. Not bad.
