Notes:
To die, to grunt and sweat under a weary life; for who would fardels bear, to say we end the oppressor's wrong, there's the spurns that is the slings and the oppressor's wrong, the whips and enterprises of death, the rub; for who would bear the insolence of resolution is sidekilled o'er with a bare bedskin? Who would beat, to grunt and moment with and the heart-ache and sweat under a weary life, but that makes calamity of something after depth what dream: ay; the unworthy takes, when he himself might be? Nonesuch!

Are they bastardizing Hamlet's soliloquy for the description on the can?

Thanks to rudzud
Nice creamy foamy head with medium retention, nice lacing, cloudy hazy dark orange color
Nose fair citrus, tangerine, little orange juice, a touch of pith and citrus rind, mango like tropical notes, little doughy pithy malt, little stone fruit
Taste big creamy doughy malt, with citrus, orange rind zesty, tangerine, with some stone fruit as well, quite sweet though, like overly annoyingly sweet, little chalky mineral and doughy wheat creamy, citrus oil, medium bitterness, drier finish, lingering pithy and a little citrus and rind lingering, medium to higher bitterness
Mouth is med to a bit fuller bod, creamy like with medium higher carb, almost no alcohol
Overall pretty nice

Shared with JLindros.
A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice hazy golden hue with a fat one finger creamy head that fades to leave nice lacing and wisps.
S - Aromas of fruity berry skins and light stone fruits. Good citrus zest, pleasant tropical fruits, mango, rather solid.
T - Taste is similar to the nose with nice slightly bitter citrus peel, almost sweet marmalade. Good candied orange slices as well as nice candied dried tropical fruits.
M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, creamy, good thick fluffy feel.
O - Overall this was a solid enough dipa, nice fruits, nothing super assertive. Solid hop and malt bill.
Serving Type: can

TREE HOUSE TRICK DIPA 11/3/19
From the brewery 11/1/19. Fancy can art with glittery bits of an elaborate question mark. Poured from the 16 oz. can into a Tree House stemmed tulip.
a; Opaque greenish orange with an inch thick white head whichy receded to thin surface foam and dense lacing.
s; Intense citrus leaning to pink grapefruit rind and tropicals.
t: Follows the nose with strong bitterness which lingers into the dry finish.
m; Heavier side of medium, great body and lots of carbonation tingle.
o; An extreme TH DIPA, giving the impression of a huge hopload, which may not please all IPA fans, who might reel at its intensity. Perhaps that's the trick. But it's a neat one for those who enjoy such hop power despite the seeming lack of complete balance between malt and hop.

16oz tallboy can, sample from a friend.
I dig this beer, its what you expect a hazy DIPA to be. Super fresh juicy character, grassy with a slick oily orange hop essence. Slight piney flavor within. Kiss of warming alcohol and not overly bitter.
