Growler courtesy of MCBeerBrew, I know that feel.
3-ish day old growler.
Pours surprisingly light (american lager territory) first pour off the growler didn't give much head so the second pour was more aggressive and I get one finger of nice tight white head.
Aroma is all hops, very citrusy, lots of grapefruit, with a touch of pine on the back end.
Taste is much sweeter than I was expecting. Definitely a bit of honey sweetness with a strong hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel is just a touch thick, not quite dry, as the sweetness on the palate would suggest, carbonation is a little not sure if that is because it was from a growler or not.
Overall this is a solid DIPA, I would gladly purchase this at the pub, though I wouldn't go out of my way to trade for it.

Had on tap at Thai Me Up. Review from notes.
A: Poured a light golden/orange color with a small white head on top with decent retention, leaving a thin cap on top with very nice lacing.
S: Very citrus forward with plenty of grapefruit and orange rind. There is a little pine and earthy hops with a slight sweetness.
T: Nice bitterness upfront with much more pine coming through on the flavor profile with some light citrus mixed in.
M: Medium bodied with medium carbonation, nice bitterness.
O: A really nice IPA, deceptively high ABV.
