Pours a hazy light orange with fine, soft head.
Smell is dank and citrusy with notes of melon and overripe stonefruit.
Taste is juicy and citrusy, with notes of melon, peaches and hops. Moderate bitterness and hop burn, crisper than the nose led on.
Mouthfeel is medium, soft and well carbonated.
Overall, a very nice DIPA, with a slightly muddled smell.

L - 1-finger milky offwhite head atop a milky yellow body.
S - fried bologna, cheese, scrapple, some grapefruit.
T - cheddar cheese, honey, grapefruit, orange juice. Meaty nose doesn’t translate into the taste, alas. Moderate-low bitterness. No sweetness. Low booziness.
F - medium body and carb.
O - dig it, but the version without Vic was better.

Pours a lovely hazy orange with a medium head that dissipates quickly; up front orange notes with a grapefruit finish, very nice DIPA!

Tasted in a Rastel Teku from a one pint can on May 11, 2018. The spotlights come up and a hush falls over the crowd. On stage: a lone performer with a penchant for flair. But tonight, he's outdone himself. This demonstrative DIPA now boasts a DDH of Vic Secret & Mosaic that's encore worthy and not to be missed.

Canned 4/18/18; drank 5/9/18 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice off-white head; decent lace.
Orange citrus & mild grapefruit notes in the nose.
Soft, medium mouthfeel.
Orange citrus & faint cream flavors up front; grapefruit bite on the finish.
Juicy, to be sure; I'd prefer more orange & less grapefruit, palate-wise, but hard to complain much about this one.

Not throwing out the rating lightly.
No brainer 5 star.
Best beer they have done, and I have had every one of them. Holy smokes.
Grapefruit on the nose?
This beer is just so smooth and juicy. Dangerous.
I could easily drink 10 more at a sitting before I realized what I had done.

16 oz. Can
Canned On: 11/20/17
Less than a month on this can.
Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow/orangy color, very nice carbonation, with a very nice thick/creamy one-finger plus white head, which also leaves some pretty nice creamy sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango), pretty nice diesel like. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, mango), really nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV hidden very well, with a nice little dry/bitter finish. Overall, still a very tasty brew. Addictive! Orange Julius! Thanks John!
