Orange, dark gold color with a bit of haze. Nice ring lace after each sip. Moderate bar poured head.

Strong grapefruit nose with a touch of flowery perfume.

This starts with an apricot - peach sweetness. The swallow is drier with a more straight up bitterness. Long aftertaste. Moderate body, elevated carbonation. Some alcohol warmth in the swallow.

Tried this on NYE and really enjoyed it, so much that I had 2 of them. Very hazy orange color, almost as if you mixed orange juice into your IPA. Smelled nice, mostly citrus and a little bit dank. Surprisingly low hop bitterness, very smooth. Medium body mouthfeel. Mostly citrus taste, can't recall any specific fruits but there were several, and just a hint of dank/resin. I really enjoyed this one... not too citrusy, nicely balanced. Only wish that there had been a bit more bitterness, but that's just because I enjoy a lot of bitterness in an IPA. But no complaints, I would definitely drink this again given the chance.

 

 

pretty hard to go wrong when you load up a pale ale type with a ton of nelson and other new zealand hop varietals. i never would have guesses this was 8% abv, it drinks like half of that, super light in body and with none of the oily thickness some of the larger ipas have. hazy with a great nose on it, juicy nelson first, but with some of the other tropical fruity hops right behind it. i get lemon and tangerine and pineapple and even some passion fruit, lots of that vibe, but very little sweetness. honestly the bitterness is very low too, which makes this easier drinking and dangerous. tons of citrus and pineapple in the flavor, very much east coast style, orange and lemon again, juicy without the bite. medium bodied only, light for what it is, and quite well carbonated to brighten it up even more. this represents the cutting edge of the trend of delicious super dry hopped hazy ipa, leave it to evil twin to do something like this so well. perhaps they have become a product of their environment, but this is better than the beers it is inspired by. great liquid here, hope it gets packaged!

Poured from crowler into tumbler glass.


Very hazy, juicy, just pure orange juice thickness and dark pulpy color. 1 finger of head, leaving lace behind that looks like a halfway erased chalkboard.

Aroma of grapefruit pith, citrus, slight dank, slight armpit.

Flavor is just....wow. The Orange Julius of IPA's. Total citrus takeover. Grapefruit pith, orange squirts, mango, and finishes of herb and papaya. The 8% alcohol is virtually undetected in this beer. As it warms the herbal qualities take over a bit. For maximum citra action, keep it ice cold.

Feel is quenching smooth, creamy, and mildly spiked carbonation.

Overall, outside of Tree House and Ninja Vs. Unicorn, probably my favorite juicy IPA.
