Very tasty IPA! Great dark gold color. Taste is lower on the sweet citrus flavor and has a bit of a unique darker, salty, slightly dank flavor. Great big feel, stronger alcohol flavor. Great compliment for a spicy meat dish....I like.

Pours amber with much effervescence& a thumb of cream colored head. Sheets of lacing & above average head retention. Murks up a touch at the end
S: Pineapple & breadyness, fades a bit as this warms
T: Follows the nose, dryness & biscuitty malt up front & leafy hops as well. Pineapple & mango mix with biscuitty malt & dryness as this warms, faint hints of grainy astringency as well, some blonde tobacco notes as well & even a little honey malt. Finishes with pineapple, leafy hops, a little pine, & grapefruit with a touch of cakeyness
MF: Medium/heavy bodied, fairly light carbonation, greatbalance
Drinks very easy for the style & ABV, another solid offering, probably the best I've had from these guys

Pretty good imperial ipa but I have to say, most oklahoma IPAs taste about the same. This one taste very boozy.
