The only knock on this is the smell. With that said, this experimental has all the rest of the characteristics nailed. The water profile perfect. This is a clean 8%. And taste of berries. Maybe a Vic Secret hop schedule. This is the newest batch of the rotating series.

Poured into a 12oz glass via draft at Common Roots.
Dark yellow orange in color
Smell is light citrus and hops
Taste is a heavy dose of maltiness up front..a little too much for my tastes and it was also a bit more bitter than id like..my least favorite of the Common Roots beers ive had

A: The beer is clear yellow in color and has no visible carbonation. It poured with a short white head.
S: Faint aromas of stone fruit and watermelon are present in the nose.
T: The taste has flavors of lemon, melon, stone fruit, and watermelon. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation. The hops do not contribute any crispness.
O: This beer has an interesting mix of flavors in the taste, although they seem somewhat muted compared to other Imperial IPAs. However, for a beer of this strength, it drinks very easily and hides any traces of alcohol.
Serving type: can
