From previous reviews, it would appear this new batch has been edited a bit. I'd dare say for the best.
Orange with a sweet little head into the tulip. I close my eyes and am in a land of fruit and evergreens. A bit of pine, a dash of orange, a smattering of mango in the nose with a touch of sweetness. The flavor is fantastic, bitter but balanced with the malt. Appears from the previous reviews that quite a bit of the crystal has been taken out. Citrus, pine, and some tropical action. Doesn't drink like a double even. Tastes just like a strong IPA. I wonder if they've dialed down the ABV a bit because there is no indication of even 10%. A bit sticky.
Whatever they've done with this new batch, they've done it quite well. Very impressed with this offering. Plus, hey, they're brewing it themselves!
