22 Oz bottle. No bottling info
Pours a golden body with a bone white head. Lots of visible carbonation bubbles that are interestingly multi sized. Only moderate retention but great layered lacing all the way down. I liked the clean not quite clear body
Malts at the pour that turn pretty dank and peppery as it warms. I'm also getting plum and spices. Fairly prominent smell overall
Taste is boozy up front. Lots of hops with a nice bitter finish
Full to medium feel.
A great little boozy attitude adjuster !

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice clean/clean dark golden orangy color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, mango), pretty nice piney. The taste is pretty nice hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, mango, pineapple), pretty nice piney. Medium body, ABV hidden very nicely, with a nice little dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty brew. Nice to see it around here.

Good. But doubles are not my choice of style and while I love Fremont brews, so many breweries do double IPAs better. If this is your style - get it I know many who like this beer. New England style lends itself better to this ABV IMO.

A thanks to the creator of the canquest, woodychandler, for this beer, Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a hazy, golden/orange color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of citrus, peaches. Taste is a good balance of pine and citrus, and yeah, it's pretty damn bitter. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall is a solid beer.
