This hop megatron bomb blasts your palette in places you didn’t know you had taste buds. Brilliantly golden, with a faintly green hue due to the incessant hop additions that continue from 1st wort through the boil, the hopback, primary and secondary fermentations, cold aging and the serving vessel—this skillfully crafted beer has enough alpha acids in it to bitter a barleywine three times its size. A liquid death-metal lyric to the essential essence of humulus lupulus--not for the faint of hop.

growler sent my way with that cool new iPad glass branded the same (dope shape). classic looks to the beer, nose and taste are definitely on the syrupy end of the spectrum. lots of pony hops good amount of caramel....could easily be confused with an American barleywine. dug it

Somewhat along the milder side for the DIPA category. It's smoother and lighter than most heavily oiled hop-bombs, but still has a good flavor and plenty of hoppiness. It's remarkably easy to drink and leaves a lightly hop-oiled sweet finish. Quite enjoyable, as are all of Freetail's beers.
