Draught @ Brewery: This one pours a cloudy golden color. There was about no head or lacing. The nose is good. Malts, earthy hops and tropical notes. The taste is very good. A little sweet and bitter. Earthy, pine and tropical flavors.

Big bitter IPA tons of pine, resin and a hint of citrus on the nose. Medium bodied, the pine and resin flavors come on strong and the term dank has never been more accurate. A slightly sweet malt finish.

Poured on tap at WHYM in Portsmouth. Pours a very attractive hazy orange with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves rings of lace behind.
Smell is mango, papaya, guava, passion fruit, piney grapefruit rind.
Taste follows huge tropical fruit all I already mentioned with a huge hit of piney grapefruit in the balanced and delicious finish.
Mouthfeel is bigger than medium, nice amount of life a smidge dry, and excellent drinkability, but it does drink bigger than its 7.5% ABV.
Overall this reminds me of many of the Vermont greats, sticky, chewy, and loaded with pungent tropical fruits.

Kinda nasty. Smoky and oily all at the same time. This is the third beer that I've had from Garrison that does this. Gag and drain pour. It's hyped and not inexpensive. Got a tall boy from Tuckaway Tavern for more than I care to admit (more than you pay for Heady Topper in Vermont), but I would like to have a good local brewer. This is just awful. It's like some one poured lightweight motor oil in as a finishing touch. Who would do this to beer?

Can from Bert's with a canned on date 1/27/16 Love it!
Slightly hazy light golden color with a decent sized long lasting bubbly white head that persists. Big tropical stone fruity light pine hoppy nose with a crackery maltiness underneath. Sweet bready light caramel maltiness with hints of orange. Mostly fruity but light earthy hop flavor with a moderate level of bitterness. Light alcohol warming in the finish. Definitely doesn't suck, but maybe a hint of the malty side for my tastes.
