UPDATED: OCT 17, 2020 On tap at Brewhouse Brisbane on 16 October 2020. I believe that this is my first Ballast Point Brewing beer on tap - I’ve had a few bottles and cans but never a draft. What better to have than this imperial IPA. Solid looking beer in the glass with a deep amber colour and a spongey head of white foam. A mix of pine, melon and citrus in the flavour. Not a beer that I would think was 8.5% ABV if I didn’t know as it holds the alcohol well.

UPDATED: SEP 29, 2020 Bottle at home. The beer poured clear. This to me seem like it was an old school style beer. It was sticky, resinous and bitter. Nice but not just not what I wanted

UPDATED: SEP 9, 2020 Bottle. Golden pour, slightly hazy, with a white head. Citrus hops, grapefruit, bread, pine, moderately bitter, and light caramel. Not bad, but not an exciting DIPA either.

UPDATED: MAR 31, 2020 Liquide doré trouble, nez citron, fruits de la passion, ananas. En bouche, c'est agrumes à souhait et une fin avec une amertume bien marquée tout en gardant une certaine rondeur peu fréquente pour une west coast. Je vais facilement y revenir !!!

UPDATED: MAR 22, 2020 Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a tulip. Beautiful, lightly hazy golden color with a frothy off-white head. Nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is pine, citrus, and something else. Peach? Nice mouth feel, medium bitter, and dry finish. Enjoyable.

UPDATED: MAR 13, 2020 Hoppy aroma. Medium bitterness, some citrus zest, bread, and a mildly dry and hoppy finish. Full but not heavy.
