We went all out with this one. Fermented with a fruit forward yeast strain and double dry hopped with a frightening amount of Galaxy, Citra, and Cryo Pop. A flood of peach nectar rolls across the palate, followed by billowing flavors of mango, nectarine, and and pineapple. Mouthfeel is incredibly juice like , it's almost scary. Bring on the tingles!

Can poured into an Alvarado Street Brewery Willi Beecher Glass
A: Pours golden orange amber with a frothy off white head that settles to a firm layer and laces beautifully.
S: Ripe tropical, stone fruit, and citrus run the show, slight resinous and grass notes, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.
T: Juicy tropical, and stone fruit, pineapple juice, peach, apricot, mango, and passion fruit, nice compliment of citrus, tangerine, lemon, lime, and a hint of grapefruit, resinous, a touch grassy, biscuity malt, and caramel sweetness.
M: On the fuller side of medium body, moderate carbonation, somewhat soft on the palate.
O: Wish I had time to enjoy this on Halloween night, but close enough. Probably the most pineapple forward IPA I've had in a while. Juicy, but it's got a nice bitterness to keep it balanced. Really nice stuff.

Sweet, tropical-fruity, hoppy, and slightly dank nose on this one! Taste follows with a juicy and creamy, hoppy bitter finish....some grapefruit bitterness lingers on the swallow. This has outstanding depth and mouthfeel to it. Really Good!

Looks just like o.j. with a big, thick head
Hopped up aroma of oranges and other citrus with some dank floral background notes. Taste pretty much exactly follows suit. Feel is full & creamy with a little zesty zing and very mild bitterness. Overall, more ASB hazy goodness.

Can with black label, green writing to resemble “goosebumps” children’s scary stories.
Described as “juicy double ipa”. Canned 3 days prior, poured to glass.
Looks like orange Julius with a fluffy head.
Aroma of oranges and other earthy citrusy stuff. Coconuts?
Juicy orange and mango juice taste. Mild to moderate bitterness. Strange thing is an aftertaste of peanut sauce, like from an oriental restaurant. Unsure if I like this.
Thick juicy mouthfeel.
Drinkable but the thickness and peanut flavor did not allow me to enjoy finishing.
