L: A lively hazy amber-gold pour produces a quickly receding 1” cream colored foam collar that leaves thin, sticky lace.
S: Mint, pine and light fruit.
T: Big malt flavors, light fruit, fairly dry with a lingering, moderately high quinine bitterness. Malt and hop based fruit flavors are moderate.
F: Very creamy, soft palate, medium body and carbonation.
O: A big, flavorful beer with a delightful, soft, creamy texture.

The site is saying this is retired but it hasn’t been that long since I tasted it and wrote my notes. So, perhaps they’ve brewed it again?
I found this a well balanced hoppy DIPA with a sweet finish. Candied orange and citrus peel, with just enough malt to lend some support. Hops shine center stage here, and it is enough to get me to overlook the stumbles on the landing
