Dark orange brew, fairly cloudy and opaque but not quite pulpy like some NE IPAs. Good head production and excellent retention.

Juicy notes leap from the pour. Closer introspection in the glass yields notes of orange, mango, papaya, peach, and honey. Light bright herbs.

Even more juicy on the palate. Only moderate bitterness, and the malt profile and booze never become syrupy. Orange, grapefruit peel, honey, mint, basil, lemon, mango, pineapple, cracker.

For a 10.5% TIPA, this is smooth, lively, and very drinkable - one of the most drinkable I've ever had, honestly. Mildly dry finish, slight heat in the back of the throat after the sip fades from the palate.

Poured from a 16 oz can into a snifter. Obtained in a beer swap. Very smooth for a Triple IPA. Darker in color than expected. It has minimal lace. It packs a punch.

Sampling a cold 16 oz can of this brew poured into a snifter. I picked up the beer at the brewery in Cranston. I gotta say, I like the infinity symbol next to the IBU listing!
The beer pours a clear copper hue with a creamy khaki colored head of 2 cm foaming up on a gentle pour. The foam fades to a clingy edge layer and one large island on the surface of the glass. Leaves fairly dense lattice after each sip from the glass.
Aroma is some pine sap and a bit of grassy notes and some grapefruit rind. This is an old school IPA. I do get just a bit of caramel buried under the hops too, which balances the nose a bit.
The first sip reveals an average body with smooth texture and medium carbonation that is slightly tingly on each mouthful.
The flavor is a bit o grainy and sweet caramel but this rolls to citrus rindy hops and pine sap. The rindy flavor lingers after each swallow and is fairly bitter. Finish also dries out my palate after each swallow. This is an old school IPA, and I like it. No fruity hazy sweet notes, bite and crisp on each swallow. I dont taste any of the 10.5% but do feel it a little as the can is empty as the beer is very drinkable as well. QUite a nice IIIPA in the mold of an older school brew. Check it out if you like bitterness in your IPA!
