It is back!!
Double the malt and hop bill (ekuanot, Simcoe, and mosaic) of Prediction?...Pain!
Gorgeous shimmering, clear, copper body almost supporting a 1/8in cap of white, tight bubbles before disippating to the ethereal copper and leaving a clean glass in its wake.
Aroma of hop bitterness welcomes peach, pear, pine and citrus in the mix and flows easily into the flavor with a lurking crackery malt back.
Mouthfeel is a lighter medium, but there's no water here and the abv is nearly undetectable.
Overall a really fine imperial, imperial IPA.

22 ounce bottle into a snifter. Had 6/4/18. This batch was 13.0%.
Pours a lightly hazy orange, with a half inch foamy head and some foamy lacing. Aromas of orange, pineapple, mango, a little melon, light pine, some malt, light yeast. The taste is malt, pine, orange, some grapefruit, lighter mango than the nose. Lots of hop bitterness throughout, light alcohol warming, an earthy hop finish. Really ramped up flavor on this one. Smooth for the ABV, well carbonated, a solid light to medium body.
Really well constructed, great flavors and aromas, drinks dangerously easy for the ABV. This one definitely flies under the radar. Well worth a purchase, when it’s available.
