Bone dry with a slight grainy sweetness. Floral aroma with a bushel of candied tropical fruit notes such as ripe mango and pink grapefruit.

A very pretty, dark and golden orange color. Impressive blend of flavors - malty, hops, strong and subtly sweet. An even nicer feel and finish that lingers. Dy-no-mite

16oz can served in a stemmed pilsner glass. Dated 06/13/23. Got it from @Roguer, another fruit of NBS BIF #17 rascality.

Pours a clear, dark bronze-gold with a big, two-to-three finger head. Collapses into big fluffy piles of chunks. Smell is definitely boozy, dank pininess, hay.

Taste is an interesting contrast between boozy, grainy sweetness and heavy, pine bitterness, thick grapefruit rind.

Mouthfeel is thick, chewy, a little sticky. Overall, it's a pretty nice beer.

Pours a golden orange with a slight haze to the clarity and a rocky, one inch bright white head that eventually disperses into a soapy slick. A few residual spots and swaths of lacing are present during the tasting. Nose expresses tropical fruit (mango, pineapple), citrus fruit (perhaps tangerine) and a light, character towards the back. Taste consistent with nose, with the addition of a some bitter herbal/earthy rind that cuts through the flavor profile on a light, toasted malt backbone. Mouthfeel is light-medium in body with a pleasant, even carbonation and a slight oiliness to the texture.

Poured from a 16oz can stamped "Canned 12/21/20" to Nonic at fridge temp.
Pours hazy gold but not hazy enough to inhibit light from glowing through event the middle of the glass. Half an inch of off white foam sits above and laces nicely through the entire session.
Alcohol is present in the aroma as well as a nice piney hop note.
Taste is similar with alcohol through out, but not over powering. Only in the middle of a mouthful to you get some piney hops, a hint of the malt and the alcohol returns for the finish. However, for a 9.6% the alcohol notes are acceptable.
Mouthfeel is more coating and fuller than the appearance and suggests. That being said, its appropriate.
Decent beer if your looking for an imperial.
