Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow 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, peach), pretty nice diesel like, picking up a very slight Nelson. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, mango, peach), really nice diesel like, picking up on the Nelson a little. Medium body, ABV hidden very well, with a nice little dry/bitter finish. Overall, a very tasty brew and another from BI. Addictive! Orange Julius! Always a Joy drinking these NE style IPAs/DIPAs, especially from BI. They are doing a great job of it. Thanks John!

Fantastic IPA\Session beer. Cloudy, light body, very good nose and taste. This could likely be one of the top five beers you’ve ever had. No lie. You really taste the Nelson white wine notes. Worth the cash$$$$$

Poured into a snifter. Typical look with a hazy/turbid golden color and a frothy white head. Decent lacing in the glass. Moderately strong aromas of white wine, white bread, and some earthy notes. A great Nelson taste with balanced white grape/wine notes and a dank undercurrent. Some fruity notes but this was Nelson all the way. A fairly soft mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Soft bitterness.
