UPDATED: OCT 7, 2021 Slightly hazy peach with a rocky white head. Aroma is strong peach, pine, mineral water, and melon. Taste is medium sweet and heavy bitter.

UPDATED: JUN 26, 2021 Can pour from Valley Beverage, Sherman Oaks. It's a clear gold with lazy sparkle, finger-width off-white foamy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong dank herbs and pine. Taste mirrors aroma with late crackers. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation, no hint of alcohol (8.5%) and finish as taste. Overall, good strength of the aroma and taste. Not terribly complex but avoids getting too bitter.

UPDATED: JUN 24, 2021 On tap at Bottle Logic, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops upfront, with light resinous hop oils, and just enough biscuity malt. Flavour is beautifully piney, with lots of piney hops, some citrusy tang, and dry, crisp biscuity malt. Punchy, dry and piney. Excellent.

UPDATED: OCT 20, 2020 Seems to be a little old. Aromas are spicy oxidized hops with some amber malt. Flavors are like nose hoppy sweet upfront with some growing bitterness that levels off. Some oranges and mangoes in there. Slightly medicinal in the finish. Decent enough beer.

UPDATED: JUN 16, 2020 Very reminiscent of a late-aughts DIPA, with heavy doses of caramel and pine leading the charge, followed by moderate veins of mango, grapefruit, orange, and citrus zest. Finishes on a supremely bitter note, fairly ruinous--if you get my drift--and a lengthy, oil fade dusted with flowers and a modest grainy sweetness. Doesn't pack quite the tongue-scouring potency of its forbears, but it certainly leans into the history of 21st century IPAs.

UPDATED: MAR 11, 2020 22 oz. bottle from Best Damn Beer Shop. Pours a cloudy dark orange with an inch of frothy khaki head that settles into a thick ring and film, thickest in the center, leaving lace all the way down the glass. Notes of pine, grapefruit, tea, brown sugar, pale and caramel malts, grass, straw, resin, papaya, mango, and florals. Medium-bodied, with moderate carbonation and a bitter, sweet, malty, resinous mouthfeel. Good straight-up DIPA.

UPDATED: OCT 9, 2019 Tap at Mikkeller Kastrup. Clear amber with a slighly beige head. Loads of citrus here, grapefruit, stone fruit, quite a bit of zesty grapefruit peel. Slight touch of caramel before a dank, piney finish. Old school. Nice!

UPDATED: APR 19, 2019 32oz crowler pours with a nearly clear copper body that supports a full frothy tan head of foam. The aroma offers up ripe tangelo and then thin notes of nectarine and grapefruit. The taste delivers tangelo and clementine juiciness and then heading into boozy bitter grapefruit and a sense of nectarine. Pretty nice for such a big beer.

UPDATED: JAN 18, 2019 On tap at Machete. Pours a hazy copper gold with medium white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is dank and citrus. Slick body, grapefruit, melon, dank, nice lingering resin bitterness, very good.

UPDATED: DEC 2, 2018 On tap at The Brewpub. Golden with white head. Malts, hops, Tropical fruits and bitterness.
