A bigger version of the Wave Chaser.
Amber yellow with a bit of chill haze and a stark white head, dense and clingy.
Aroma is sweet and herbal, notes of clementine and spruce.
Sugary sweet and heavy on the tongue initially sliding into warm alcohol and mild bitterness on the back end.
A bit too sweet, just shy of cloying with it's nearly full bodied heft but nice balance overall.

Poured a slightly hazy burnt amber color with a moderate head. Smell was immediate of hops and citrus fruit, little pine and slight booze. Taste follows the nose with less booze burn than expected. Felt a little over carbonated but not terrible. Overall great double ipa that I would revisit in the future.

19oz can.
L: Light haze, amber colour with a two-finger white head and rings of lacing.
S: Honeyed tropical fruit.
T: Orange, lychee, translucent gummy bears and barley sugar. Rich and heady. Alcohol heat is there in the finish but doesn’t dominate.
F: Full body, chewy mouthfeel, moderate carbonation, light bitterness.
O: An indecently drinkeable DIPA. Rich but smooth, strong but delicate. Lovely jubbly.
