No date on can, into a Hoof Hearted becher pint.

Pours a hazy dark yellow with excellent foam. Aroma is white grape, lots of dankness, and Nelson skunk. Very skunky. Flavor is similar, super funky, very heavy on the white grape. There's a little grapefruit rind on the back end and it's rather vegetal. I get a big mandarin orange note as well which is super juicy and distinct in the mid palate. There's a good toasted malt flavor in there too but that's the only sign that this is a triple. I get some bitterness on the finish but this is once again a pretty smooth and slightly sweet beer. Feel is good, pretty creamy and dense, high body but still very enjoyable.

Overall, fun beer. It's big but not too bold and extremely nice on a hot day.

My dealer keeps getting Hoof Hearted treats and I keep buying them. They never disappoint - especially these big ones. I bought three of these including some for an eclipse party, but nobody drank it. More for me.

It pours light yellow and cloudy with nice lacing. The aroma is stanky but not overly so. The taste is a nice juicy IPA, thick and chewy and well hidden alcohol.

Recommended. It is what you expect from this great brewer (very, very good).

On draft at Brew Bank Topeka. Poured a clear, golden orange color with a small, fluffy head of foam. It left sudsy trails of lace on the glass. It smelled fruity with bubblegum, caramel and resin. Great tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a piney bitterness.

I somehow had the impression of a yeasty bread or cracker. Didn’t taste citrusy to me. I could taste the grain, I guess. With “peppercorn” in its name, should this have tasted peppery? Maybe did a little for me. It was probably the triple dry-hopping, but this tasted rich. And I thought it was delicious. After so many citrusy, hop-forward tastes, this is a nice change.
Hazy, light amber in color, nice mouth feel. Foamy had that lasted and left residual on the glass. This is a beer to go with a meal.

1 PINT can
Served in an oversized, stemless, wine glass

This beer pours yellow and turbid. It is topped with a couple inches of creamy beige head that leaves great lacing.

Dank, Citrus, and medicinal aromas.

Dank, yet sweet at times. Citrus. Mild bitterness that does not linger

Full bodied with a smooth, pillowy mouthfeel

Very smooth for the abv. Enjoyable

The alcohol slightly overpowers the hop flavor. Definitely notice the white wine note mentioned in the description. Nice hoppy high alcohol IPA.
