Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has an orange.golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of pine, some citrus. Taste is the same as the aroma, alcohol is present, a bit of malts and melons, moderate bitterness. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall is a pretty good beer.

Pours orange with a 1/4 inch white head. Hazy. Moderate carbonation. Thin lacing.

Aroma of pine, citrus, yeast. Hoppy.

Taste is yeasty, piney, grapefruity.

Full bodied, foamy mouthfeel. Dry finish.

A nice, hazy bottle conditioned DIPA.

$ 11.63 (Including tax and deposit)/6-pack of 12 oz bottles ($ 0.162/oz) at Clayton Superfine Supermarket, Clayton, NY. Reviewed 9/2/19.
Undated bottle. Stored on shelf in store. Stored at 42 degrees and served at 42 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter.
Appearance – 4.
First pour – Light yellow, clear.
Body – Gold, hazy with effervescence. When held to the light, light gold and translucent. Some sediment in bottom of the bottle.
Head – Large (Maximum 4.5 cm, aggressive center pour), white, high density and creamy, average retention, retracting to an irregular four to ten mm crown and a thin complete cap with a couple of rocks. A few tiny pieces of lacing remain after head retraction.
Lacing – Good. Irregular wide band of tiny to small bubbles with an occasional larger one thrown in. See also above.
Aroma – 4 – Herbal, resinous, floral hops.
Flavor – 4 - Taste follows the nose – herbal and resins, moderately bitter, with a long hang-time. No alcohol taste or aroma (8.5 % ABV), no diacetyl, no dimethylsulfide.
Palate – 4 – Medium, almost creamy, soft carbonation.
Impression and interpretation – 3.75 (- 0.25 point for undated individual container) – Decent IPA, nothing fancy, just very basic and solid.

12 oz. bottle poured into a tulip glass.

L---Hazy, golden color. Fluffy off-white head with good retention and excellent lacing.

S---Pine is in the forefront. Very hoppy.

T---Pine is obvious. Definitely resinous. There's some citrus & breadiness as well. Usually, I appreciate some malt flavor balancing a hoppy offering, but it doesn't work as well here.

F---Good carbonation. A little sticky, but not too much.

O---If only everything else followed through on its appearance....

Mediocre. Bland. Boring. Not much aroma or flavor, pine and citrus like? but not really. If this is your double, why bother? Not pleasant, and overall very poor effort. Now that I check, the brewery has mostly mediocre ratings. Really, why bother?

Like the look, hazy and golden with a decent sized offwhite head. Sweet citrus nose with a slight caramel back. Flavor is similar. Citric and hoppy with some bitterness and astringency on the end. Slightly syrupy with less carbonation. Not a top flight Imperial but not too bad.
