Pours a mildly cloudy gold, with a nice layer of head and retained lacing on top. Primarily dank resin and lemongrass, with some dried pineapple and papaya on the palate. Generally smooth mouthfeel with medium body, but a hint of chalkiness.

Delicate and pleasant. Anther highly drinkable dipa from mikerphone. Nice blood orange, cantaloupe, and grapefruit off the taste with the dry hops. Smell was orange and hop centric, with a nod to the underlying yeast. Smooth and airy, perfect for summertime

750ml bottle, served in a Mikerphone taster glass (multiple times as this is my only proper glassware).
Pours a creamy and hazy golden yellow body, one finger white head, good retention, nice collar, not much lacing. Smell is freshly picked mandarin oranges, a bit of stone fruit, resin and leaf, touch of pulp, light honey sweetness. Otherwise not much indication of a malt presence if any. Flavour follows, oranges, pulp, light floral notes and some resin, minimal malt presence, as expected. Moderate leafy bitterness on the backend. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, creamy, appropriately carbonated, nice medium bitter floral and citrus zest finish. Overall, a nice dry hopped DIPA, good bitterness and plenty of hop aromatics, standard for Mikerphone for me at this point.

Batch 037. Bottled 6/21/17; drank 7/4/17 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque dull orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice off-white head; strong, frothy lace.
Bubblegum & mild strawberry notes in the nose.
Soft, medium mouthfeel.
Peach & mild bubblegum flavors up front; dry, bitter grass notes on the finish. No booze heat.
This smelled good & was nice up front, but the finish was harsh & not enjoyable. Close but no cigar.
