A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a thin collar around the edge and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of gooseberry are present in the nose along with hints of pine.
T: The taste follows the smell and has additional notes of grapefruit, passion fruit and white grape. There is a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The smell and taste of this Imperial IPA are quite complex, which makes for something interesting to sip and savor.
