Appearance- great looking caramel chestnut. Excellent clarity for such a big beer. Some head initially that doesn't hang around. Nose- sweeet and leathery malts with piney hops. Taste- I thought this was very well balanced. Oily mouthfeel with a grapefruit punch offsett by caramel cookie dough malts. Very nice mouthfeel and has a very dry woody finish. Great stuff

Murky dark orange hue; lots of flotsam.
Off-white head; frothy lace.
Caramel malt & booze nose. No hop profile?!
Thick mouthfeel.
Sweet caramel with a hint of grapefruit.
This is a low alcohol US barleywine. Decent but disappointing.

12oz bottle, fresh and served in a snifter glass. Pours a darker caramel amber body, one finger white head, good retention, not much lacing. Smell is toffee, caramel, pineapple, a bit of citrus. Mostly sweet and slightly boozy aromas. Flavour is also on the sweeter malt side with caramel and toffee sweetness throughout, slight pineapple flavours and a bitter resin halfway through and persisting into the finish. Good carbonation, medium body, moderate resinous bitterness on the backend that is balanced out by the fairly strong sweetness.

Brown in color with an inch of densely packed and creamy light beige head. The aroma is of heavy pine to citrus hops and bready light malt. I'm tasting a nice wallop of grassy to piney and lightly citrus hops and crackery light malt. The mouth is very resinous, thick, and chewy.

Solid hop work but nothing out of this world, and that is the theme of this one. The malting is very heavy, even to the point of cutting into the hop profile a bit, but it is solid an enjoyable. More sweet fruit like grapefruit than hop spice. For a dipa, is a bit mild, but a solid brew

Pour looks sexy as it comes in an orange and peach color, head foams up to about 1/3" and then the hop oils jettison that shit up and out. Aroma mixed some wet hop like green notes with a humid hangover.
Taste dropped lots of bittering hops, the malt bill is substantial without going into excessive roast or caramel like qualities. Alcohol stands down, hops stand up, nothing exotic, just a big medley here. Price is right too.
