Drift above the clouds with this West Coast Double IPA built for clear skies and good vibes. Hopped with Simcoe, Strata, Krush, and Columbus Cryo, Flying High soars with bright bursts of citrus, pineapple, and resinous pine balanced by a crisp, dry finish. It’s that feeling of smooth altitude; bold, heady, and weightless all at once.

Had Flying High poured from pint can, top face of can, above label, stamped (likely) canned on "10/13/25," gift from little bro., into nonic pint.
Pours lemon-gold with clarity and huge, foamy, off-white head, with excellent retention, leaving sketchy lace down the glass. Aromas of mild melon, strawberry, a little hop spice and sweet pear off pour, and soon some citrus rind too, with aromas of mild peach, bitter herbals and finally moderate dankness joining the continuing fruit aromas as warms. On tasting, begins sweet citrus and sweeter pear, with some immediate, drying citrus bite, then a long, sweet, pear and slightly peach, almost malty and briefly creamy middle, before a piney, resinous, very drying, ever more bitter West Coast finish.
A fairly classic West Coast DIPA, hugely aromatic, but surprisingly sweet until a challenging West Coast finish.
