Thanks to cough cough.... For providing this bottle for a killer jackie os tasting
From the testing of the bottling line.
Pours a clear orangish colour. Lots of white head. The aroma is phenomenal. Tons of citrus hops and grassy notes. A really solid aroma. Tastes surprisingly wonderful compared to regular ruination. Petty solid but bitter on the back of the tongue. Well carbonated and really enjoyable overall

May 15th, 2015 - This Double Dry Hopped w/ Simcoe is a special treat from the now dead South Park brew station. Orange and calm, it's a standard looking IPA with a huge Simcoe hit in the nose - great for olfactory training. Soft and with a little nuttiness, urine and wild grass, it's a feral beer and takes a slow steps to approach. The flavor is clean, crisp and mild, and is also clean and dynamic, with a crispy happiness, and sparkles with touches of tarragon and apple.

Wow, did not expect this level of greatness from such a high gravity brew. Nice amber color with a short head. The smell is deeply rooted in citrus, pine, earthy, and resinous hopes. Awesome malty aroma, and the taste is an explosion of medium malty bodied citrus notes with a deep bitterness that is likely a 60+ minute boil. The hop schedule is complex but perfectly manicured to this beer. I am so giddy with the quality of this beer that I am trying desperately to pace myself while drinking it. Beware with this beer, it may just captivate you.

Best beer I ever had. Sad to see it so long on my distros shelf. Still too expensive despite an east coast brewery colo. Just too good, like what crack sounds like, so I stay away.
