Pours deep and golden with no way to see through. Head is white leaving a nice lacing. Nose is OMG, like orange juice. Taste is very reminiscent of Ghost in the Machine, very much like it. Not much bitterness, that is the only criticism I can give.

Light yellow body, semi-hazy; huge head, dense and foamy, very sculpted; sticky, spidery patches of foam adhere to the glass. Malty nose with a sense of old, ripe citrus rind; pseudo-dankness. Malty flavor; old sugar and spice; kind of earthy herbal quality; slight hop bitterness; a little bit of alcohol presence. Heavy body; spicy stickiness; semi-dry overall.

Um, perhaps a bit old for this style of beer. There is a lack of 'freshness' in the taste, smell, and even the mouthfeel. It's not terrible, yet seems like a beer starting on it's last legs. Granted, it's an imperial styling, and it exhibits some of those traits, but they do seem tired. Rated with age factored in...

Pours a very cloudy, opaque golden color with a finger width foamy head. Head retention is excellent as is lacing. I get a citrus aroma with stonefruit. There is a mild peppery component. Juicy citrus taste with a mild peppery and stonefruit bitterness. Got this one from Tavour, and I think it was a little on the old side when I got it. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.

A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy pale yellow in color. It poured with a half finger high white head that died down but never completely faded away.
S: Light to moderate aromas of mango, orange and stone fruit are present in the smell.
T: The taste follows the smell but has stronger flavors of tropical fruit and citrus hops. A light to moderate amount of bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels medium-bided and a little smooth and juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I really enjoyed the mouthfeel of this IPA, which also did a very good job at hiding any traces of alcohol from the taste, making it quite drinkable.

Serving type: can

 

 

 

 

 

375ml bottle from Tavour. Hazy, pale golden pour, small fizzy head. Aroma is stone fruit, fresh and full. Taste brings some tartness, gentle, light sweetness. This is very sublime.
