Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am pours a hazy dark copper color, with a small head. Big aroma, lots of earth. Big flavor, lots of earth and dirt flavors, bitter in the middle, with hints of orange. Good body. Overall, big IPA, very earthy, orange helps this beer.

Reddish color with light tan head and foamy lacing. Aroma is mostly malt and quite light. Taste has a strong malt backbone yet allows a decent amount of citrus hops through. Finish is clean with only a touch of balanced sweet and bitter at the end

Thanks to my parents for this bottle.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a soft burnt orange close to amber color with a finger's worth of white foamy head that slid off at a mild pace. Some running lace around the glass.
The aroma covered some apricot flesh to danky burnt onion hop effects with a slight toastiness rounding out the edges.
The flavor was moderately sweet with a light dankiness trying to invade but seemed to maintain a steady backbone in and around the malts. Light aftertaste of the dank, apricot and onion.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Carbonation felt good. ABV felt appropriate. Danky to apricot finish some oily effects riding along my tongue.
Overall, fairly nice DIPA that I could come back to.

Poured into a wide mouth class, not sure when it was bottled, but I am sure it is fresh. Pours a orange red, with a solid 2 inch white head that leaves behind some streaks of lace.
Smell is tangerine, apricot, some dank hops, pine, hard candy, and some fresh grapefruit.
Taste follows apricot, canabis, tangerine, piney grapefruit, and just a tickle of alcohol in the final.
Mouthfeel is pretty dang large, plenty of life for its heft, a little dry from all the fresh hops, and drinks pretty darn easy.
Overall this is a very nice beer, once again @jzeilinger comes through. Thx man.

A - Deep copper/amber colored pour with gentle carbonation and a thin lacing ring. Color is very clear.
S - Caramel and citrus aroma (with faded orange) that leans more towards the sweeter malt side.
T - Citrus, citrus rind, some spiciness, alcohol presence, and some sweet malt base. On the back end, leaves a big citrus, spicy aftertaste on the palate.
M - Full bodied, viscous, alcohol effervescence, and coats the mouth with a strong coating of citrus rind.
O - A spicy citrus rind that gradually builds. A big beer with big presence.
