Hazy orange pour, slight off white cap with little lacing. Sour citrus sweetness on the nose. Incredible flavors of tropical fruits but the grapefruit dominates. Smooth and crisp with a bitter finish. Quite an amazing IIPA!

Pours typical of an ipa, golden and somewhat hazy. Nose has an odd almost sour smell. Taste at first is pungent but that fades to sweet. Follow up is citrusy.

16 oz. can poured into a wine glass.
Pouts a hazy goden orange hue with a two finer fluffy white head. Head leaves nice lacing behind, and it retains very well. Hard to see any carbonation as the brew is quite opaque.
Big fragrance of oranges and grapefruit, then some mango, and the slightest suggestion of ginger accompanied by a subtle grain like husk aroma, also some hints of tar.
Tastes of juicy, hop driven oranges and grapefruit. Orange and grapefruit is almost in equally parts, but the sweetness of the orange flavor gives way to the tingling bitterness of grapefruit. Mid palate has some evidence of grains coming through in a mix of white and wheat breads. Finishing in dry grapefruit rind.
Mouth feel is on the heavier end of medium bodied, but still very dry due to all the hops. There is a distinct numbing tingle that seems partly due to the hops and partly due to the ABV. That being said, abv is very well hidden.
Weird name, but this is a beautiful beer. Well hidden alcohol content. Great hop flavors without excessive bitterness and a great balance of flavors. I highly recommend this!!!
