No time and no space. Life beyond life. An experience transcendental, originating from within and projected through the third eye. Relax. Take a journey of the mind. Open up to the possibilities beyond your mortal coil. Follow the lines that lead to your inner twisted galaxy. Unravel it, question it, understand it.

4.11/5 rDev -3.7%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4.25
650 mL bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Hazy bright orange body. Nice white head. Chunky thick collar.
Smell - Doesn't smell the way I expected it to. It's very tropical, but has a must or mineral aroma too. Kinda detracts. Doesn't smell that sweet.
Taste - Much more dynamic. Orange, some piney hops, lots of tropical fruit. Grainy and a little bitter in the back end.
Mouthfeel - Medium body, maybe pushing medium heavy. Creamy carbonation texture.
Overall - Wasn't enthused at first, but this really grew on me. Very tasty.

4.42/5 rDev +3.5%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Pours a hazy bright orange color. This one is almost glowing in my glass. A very inviting look. Head retention is average.
Smell: Very dank and viney smelling. Very intense hop aroma. A pleasent malt character shines through nicely also.
Taste/Mouthfeel: Dank hops and bitter citrus notes dominant the palate. Some rich toasted caramel notes seep through as well. Mouthfeel is very good also. Very good bitterness level along with a medium bodied balanced mouthfeel.
Overall: A very well done IPA. Very glad to have the chance to try this one. Love to try these single hopped brews.
