On draft at O'Brien's
A- Murky orange hue, light head leaves of cluster of white in the middle, minimal lacing
S- Sweet fruits, bread and rye malts, citrus tones, molasses and brown sugar
T- Initial taste is pine hops followed by bread malts, maple syrup and brown sugar, thick molasses, finishes dry and bitter... delicious
M- Full-bodied, oily texture coats mouth, low carbonation
D- Super-balanced and complex DIPA that has aspects of sweet barleywine, alcohol is well-masked at 9%, truly a DIPA treat

Pours a nice clear golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has generous floral and hoppy hints
The taste follows the nose with a very well balanced floral and hoppy flavors
A medium bodied well carbonated beer
A great IPA
