Appearance: Pours a hazy amber color with a fluffy white head; decent stickage and lacing

Smell: Dank, bright and juicy, with tropical fruit tones of pineapple and guava, as well as nectarine and strawberry

Taste: Bright, with all kinds of juicy flavors, ranging from tropical tones of pineapple and guava to strawberry and nectarine; the dankness builds in the middle, with moderate bitterness; very juicy in the finish

Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation

Overall: A great, modern DIPA; loads of juicy flavor with just enough bitterness to add balance

A: Pours a slightly hazy honey orange in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and faint copper + golden yellow highlights. The beer has a finger tall foamy off-white head that reduces to a large patch of very thin film covering the majority of the surface of the beer surrounded by a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Just shy of strong aromas of stone fruit/apricot, tropical/mango, citrus/grapefruit, and pine hops over the top of moderately sweet bready malts.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of bready malts with a slightly heavier than moderate amounts of caramel + honey-like sweetness. That is followed by slightly shy of strong flavors of tropical/mango, stone fruit/apricot, citrus/grapefruit, and dank resinous pine hops which contribute a slightly stronger than moderate amount of bitterness which slowly fades away.

M: Slightly heavier than medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Initially crisp with a light to moderate amount of oily slickness in the finish. Hints of dryness.

O: Extremely fresh bottle, released less than a week ago and the hop flavors and aromas were huge + enjoyable. Drinks quite easily with well hidden ABV. Really nice balance of sweetness from malts, hop flavors + aromas, and bitterness. Definitely worth grabbing if you get the chance.

I am going to have to revisit Freak of Nature because Hubris may be my new favorite DIPA from my home state. The closest beer that I have had would be the Stone Enjoy By series, though this one was a little less hoppy. Very flavorful, smooth and dangerously drinkable!
