22 ounce bottle into a tulip snifter. Bottled 8/7/17, had 10/5/17.
Pours a bright orange, lightly hazy, with a one inch head and some foamy lacing. Smells of lots of orange, mango, light grapefruit, some yeast, light malt. The taste opens up a bit more- orange, grapefruit, mango, pineapple, caramel, malt, pine. Mild hop bitterness that’s stronger on the finish and aftertaste, a sweet note in the middle. Smooth, fairly creamy for the style, a solid medium body, well carbonated.
A great hop blend, the Galaxy hops really pop out. Well crafted, great flavor. Well worth a purchase.

Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a 1 pint 6 fl oz bottle on October 28, 2017. Labeled as a west coast IPA triple India Pale Ale. Featuring Equinox, Galaxy and Centennial hops. Very good.

Real cloudy brownish/orange, can't even see through it. Thicker, creamy, long lasting foamy head and lacing. Not a big hop nose, slightly bitter. Taste is a bold mix of juice and bitterness. Very mellow for a 10% abv. Very good representation of a west coast style.

Definitely on the malty side. Good but far from Pipeworks usually outstanding Double IPA's.

Pipeworks found a way to make a beer taste like weed! It's malty but hoppy at the same time.
