Hazy Imperial IPA. After 4 months of tilling and and hoeing, Farmer MacDanknugs was cockeyed with anticipation, ready to reap his reward of fresh sticky nugs. Firing up his supercharged John Beere, ol’ MacDank blazed straight down to plow some primo Amarillo, Citra, and Simcoe, harvesting the funkiest hop buds to cap off this succulent unfiltered 8% Double IPA. Our farmer drifted into a happy haze from the aromas of grapefruit, passion fruit and orange, daydreaming of the juicy brew to come.

Good hazy DIPA, but was hoping for more dankness by its name.

Draft in pint glass. Pours a hazy gold with a nice off-white head. Great lacing. Initial impression is orange, grapefruit, mango, pineapple, and a bit of caramel sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium thick and bordering on sticky. Finish is fairly sweet, but nicely balanced with the hops. Overall, a very enjoyable DIPA.

Plithy, earthy, piney and tropical notes on the nose. Taste is similar and this beer is bitter throughout. Definitely not for everyone, but certain hopheads will enjoy this.

Pretty good, hops lie more towards pine than citrus. The bitterness is a bit harsh.

BB Date: 01-13-21.

A - Dark gold color with nice clarity, steady carbonation, and frothy white lacing that hangs out on top and sticks to the sides of the glass.

S - Sticky citrus aroma: Tangerine, nectarine, juicy citrus, sweet red grapefruit.

T - Candied tangerine, nectarine, citrus, and orange. Ends on the sweeter citrus side with a little bit of cloying sweetness. A little bit of booziness permeates through but overall pretty subdued. Nice lingering tangerine and grapefruit.

M - Big body with a silky texture.

O - This is definitely a citrusy dank one.

On draft. Poured out a burgundy/amber color with a small, khaki-colored head of foam. It left sticky rings of lace on the glass. It smelled dank, herbal and citrusy with some sweet caramel. Very bitter and catty with sweet toasted caramel and maltiness.

11/1/20. Best by: 1/13/21
Pours a clear medium copper. 2 fingers to thick fluffy head. Excellent retention and lacing
Nose is tangerine, citrus rind, pine
Taste is a big hit of fresh tangerine, citrus, orange zest. A touch of vanilla. Low/medium caramel-y malt backbone supporting a solid bitterness.
Body is a bit under carbonated.
