Poured from the can into a Spigelau IPA glass. Canned April 3rd 2018.
Out of control, khaki colored head right out of the can. Fills with giant foam and retention and very fine bubbles, almost yellowing. When this beast finally settles down, it reveals a very nice clear amber body color. All things considered, very nice looking but not balanced at all by any means.
Slightly faded like hops, but not entirely, touches possible faint tropical and good sweet caramel malt angle on the aroma. Smells a little gumdrop like, sort of candy sensations but not noticeably sweet. Touches some slight herbal tea quality also. There's also a bit of odd milk chocolate like aroma on this too.
Palate goes for the wood. Woody pine hop flavor, but with a surprising neutral malt mid palate, and an aftertaste that brings a good amount of prickly slowly building heat. Slight touches of almost soft cotton candy like malt caramel, and then a very earthy pine bitterness that grows unexpectedly. Peppery almost black crushed flavors. Prickly mouthfeel, a bit, but relatively soft bodied and easy feeling.
Strangely even at nearly 2 months from canning this beer still tastes strongly green. While not that much on the aromatics, it is not letting up on the hop department astringency, but not making the greatest of inroads. Drinkable, but teetering on the edge.
