Pours vibrant, hazy peach with a clingy, compact head. Juicy, mango, apricot pineapple hops in the nose, with a bit of alcohol heat as well. The taste is a wall of tropical hops with a prominent malt ballast. The mouthfeel is full bodied with creamy, textured carbonation. The finish is moderately bitter with a lingering booziness.

A nice DIPA with loads of hop flavors, Worth a try.

473 ml can served cold into a pint glass from the brewery.

Appearance - Golden and orange brew with a tremendous two and a half fingers of rocky white head. Outstanding retention and lots of haziness. Huge curtains of lacing linger.

Smell - Big tropical notes of mango, passionfruit with orange and grapefruit peel. Tropical and sweet with overripe fruit shining through.

Taste- Initially mango and passionfruit before a strong grapefruit bursts through and finishes considerably more bitter than the nose suggests. Booze is well hidden and wheat malt combination in the background.

Mouthfeel - Medium full bodied with expressive carbonation. Easy drinking and very little sharpness although the back of the throat does feel considerably warmer after a couple of sips. Not juicy and semi-dry to close.

Overall One of the better IPA's from Bellwoods although I don't know if it is quite in the quintessential final boss territory.
