On tap at Windsor Homebrew in Costa Mesa, CA.
I don’t know if I would appoint Brad Pitt as the leader of this Fight Club, but maybe he would show up on weekends. It’s ripe af with Betty Gable melons, and softer than your grandmas Siamese pussy cat.

Thick deep yellow colour. Poured with slight head that left a ring. Smell is citrus and dank, slight tropical fruit. Taste is the same, carbonation tickles and slight acidity adds to that. Feel is thick. Overall a nice beer, but a little disappointed. Either my palate is not developed enough or these American IPA's aren't that much better than the best Europe has to offer.

Sweet orange/tangerine citrus, tropical hoppy, and tropical dank nose on this one! Taste follows with a hoppy and orange/grapefruit citrus bitter swallow...some dry, earthy/grassy notes show up at the end of the swallow. This has decent depth and mouthfeel...the dry earthiness interferes a bit.
