2024 version is 10.9%.
Poured from a twelve ounce can, the body is a clear yellow-orange with white head. Good lacing.
Aroma is a mix of tropical flavors (pineapple, mango) with a bit of pine.
Taste follows nose and adds a background honey flavor. The malt bill here is substantial. Upon finish, there is a clear and bitter hop bite as things dry up.
Mouthfeel is good, mid-weight and supportive carbonation.

Pours an effervescent honey color with one finger of eggshell colored head. Pretty good head retention & lacing
S: Super fruity, bready, some mango & papaya for sure, fades a bit as this warms up
T: Follows the nose, a little dryness, some woody hops, a little sweet pineapple as well up front. Cakeyness, dryness, pine & pineapple as this beer warms up. Finishes with sweet oranges, pine, cakeyness & dryness, plus a little pineapple
MF: Pretty chewy, low carbonation, decent balance, sweetness finally gives way to bitter as this beer comes up to ambient temperature
This is a throwback Imperial IPA, malt forward, heavily influenced by their house yeast ( which usually doesn't work for me ). A sipper for sure
