Veiled dark gold/light amber color with moderate activity. Thick foamy and frothy beige 3 finger head, lasting around 10-15 minutes, with generous legs and good swirl reaction. Flavors of pineapples, orange, lemon, butter, caramel, sweet barley, with floral and herbal hops. Slick and smooth medium to full body with crispy carbonation. Strong strength finish, zesty tropical and citrus piney feel, also a bit dry hopped and leafy. Nice intensity and well balanced. Good freshness and real pleasant to drink. Overall excellent quality craft.

L- Pours a beautiful hazy, honey yellow topped by a long-lasting 1 finger white head. Thick lacing.
S- Distinct aroma of orange, pine, and not much else. Quite obviously a "juicy" IPA just judging from the aroma.
T- Caramel malt starts off the flavour profile, which transitions into the citrus and pine hop flavours that made their presence known in the aroma. The "resiny" pine flavours become more apparent as the beer warms.
F- A fairly hefty IPA with medium-heavy body and low carbonation. I think the flavours could benefit from a thinner "vessel" but it seems to work okay the way it is. Easy drinking
O- Hop Flash IPA is big, bold beer that packs tons of citrus and pine flavour in one spot. Definitely not a "session" ale at 6.6% ABV but certainly sessionable. I will be picking this one up again and I recommend that you do so as well!
