S - pungent grapefruit flesh, herb, pineapple.

T - follows the nose. Tons of grapefruit in a wrapper of dankness. Earthy middle, with some dirt and pineapple. Moderate bitterness. No sweetness. Low booziness.

F - medium-full, luxurious body with average carb.

O - continues the long line of great Triple Crossing DIPAs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The beer pours a nice white creamy head that dissipates at a moderate pace. The beer itself is a cloudy and bright yellow color that looks nice.

The smell is pretty good. The smell consists of tropical notes such as orange, unripe grapefruit note and a light grassy pine note. There is also a light and soft vanilla note through it all.

The taste is pretty good. The tropical notes that come out are a mango in the beginning and a grapefruit in the finish. The vanilla comes out more than it does in the smell but is still soft enough that it doesn't overwhelm the hop notes.

The feel is good. It has a medium body with a bit of heft to it but is still a tiny bit thin. The texture is somewhat creamy but seems to be stuck between that and smooth.

Overall, the taste alone is enough to make this a must drink.

Pours a hazy yellow with fine soapy head that clings to the glass and leaves lots of lovey lacing.

Smell is intensely juicy with tropical notes of mango, pineapple, grapefruit and some grass.

Taste is juicy and soft, but strong. Notes of mango, citrus, pineapple and grass combine with a soft bitterness and some hop bite. Incredible balance and way too easy to drink for the ABV.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy, with good carbonation.

Overall, a terrific DIPA, damned tasty.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pours a murky yellow/yellow-orange with a moderate off-white head. Decent lacing. Aroma and taste are tropical fruits (mango, pineapple, guava) with some citrus (orange and lemon). Mouthfeel is slightly abrasive. Overall, a very good NEIPA.
