22oz bomber, scooped a few weeks back at armanetti's on Lincoln in Chicago
appearance: poured into our delirium snifter - somewhat clear dull apricot body, light carbonation forms a very subtle bubbly crest with little in the way of retention
smell: aroma is good - plenty of juicy citrus hops with an emphasis on ruby red grapefruit, juicy orange, a touch tropical
taste: this one is a little rough around the edges. Alcohol comes through a bit hot, almost metallic. Moderate bitterness lingers after a sticky hop kick of grapefruit, orange, and lemon zest. Theres plenty of big malt - sticky gooey toffee and caramel
mouthfeel: light carbonation, but not flat. bigger and sticky
drinkability: ok

Review from notes. Came across as pretty one dimensional, especially given Pizza Port's brewing acumen for this style. Comes in dark, yellow/auburn notes, thin 1/4" white head. Aroma was alcohol first, then you got a smidge of tropical fruit, nondescript.
Taste was a 100ibu face melt bomb. Didn't impart enough hop flavor. Overly syrupy, thick, viscous. I dunno, I didn't find anything special about this, in fact it was below average for sure for them, one of their worst hoppy beers of all time.
