On tap at the brewery, Vista, CA.
Bronze with a ring. 3.75
Big Sunkist nose. 4
Slight toffee then juicy orange, resin, and a bit of mango pulp. 4
White pine finish and a touch of aspirin.
Light-medium, slight chew, oily. 3.75

Very SD - barely any malts and super juicy. If I’m finding flaws, there’s a bit too much tropical fruit sticky sweetness - I guess I expect a bit more sandpaper. But has all the flavors. 4.25

Had on tap. Classic brunt orange clear bod with a fat finger of white foam, some light lacing. Hello west coast! Pine leads aromas of peach, grapefruit, lemon and slight clementine. Taste follows the nose, more zesty with the fruit, some tropical notes and pear too. Feel is crisp, clean, and it shaped by the hop bitterness in a beautiful way. Liking my visit out west so far!

12oz can from the taproom in North Park, San Diego. Light orange color. Hoppy aroma, mild pine, thick citrus like pineapple juice. Juicy flavors with a decent malt backbone. Nice West Coast double.

12 oz can from blipp. Label says Lupulin Lust Double IPA with an ABV of 9%. Aroma is tropical fruit, orange creamsicle. Pours hazy golden with a thick off-white soapy head with great retention and lace. Taste is highly bitter with lots of citrus and tropical fruit flavors. Great DIPA.

Poured from a can into a Seattle Beer Week pint glass. Pours a crystal clear medium golden amber with a thin white head that dissipates to patchs, leaving light lacing. Aroma of caramel malt, citrus hops, tropical fruit, orange citrus, a little pine. Flavor is similar: caramel malt, citrus and piney hops, mixed orange citrus and light tropical fruit, grapefruit and lemon rind develop into a citrusy, hoppy finish. Medium bodied with light creaminess. A nicely made citrus and tropical fruit oriented IPA. The malt seems mild, but does have a nice light caramel base. Starts with big fruit and finishes with almost resinous citrus rind and pine hops. Enjoyable and balanced.
