Look - poured from a 12 oz bottle. Lemon yellow in color and cloudy, with a two finger head with good retention.
Smell - strong hints of sweetness, with notes of various fruits. Very promising in the scent.
Taste - not as much sweetness in the taste, with the flavor of the hops coming through. Finish is long and smooth.
Feel - medium bodied, above average carbonation, and on the moderately-high side for ABV at 7.7%. Alcohol is well masked.
Overall - this experimental series have had a really bad failure in the past (Herkules), but this one is really quite good. It truly shows the impact that a single hop can have on a beer.

Medium hazy amber look with a nice foamy head that lasts a while. Inviting scents of orange-peel, tangerine, melon, lime and pineapple on the nose. Smooth, balanced taste with deep notes of nectarine, lemon, grapefruit and pomegranate. Light to medium feel, with a nice finish and palate coating quality. Not your hop bomb, a smooth IPA with deep character and great balance.

LOOKS: Slight chill haze, amber/orange, with a finger of white foam that sticks around. Nice, thick lacing down the glass.
AROMA: Candied fruits, maybe some tangerine and stone fruits, marmalade.
TASTE: Malt comes through, more sweet candied fruit, mild bitterness that builds, slightly.
FEEL: Average carbonation, body seems a little thin for the ABV, and a little slick on the palate.
OVERALL: It's ok, wouldn't pick it up again. Not the hop flavors that I enjoy; strong citrus, tropical, and pine.
