Overall - 10% ABV - On tap at the Giraffe Lounge by Thee Dollhouse in Ft Lauderdale. Smell is dank tropical. Taste is tropical citrus, pineapple, sweet berries, spice and pine resin. She's very juicy and candiesque. This brew is a Bad Ass Mofo and so delicious! In honor of the greatest strip club song of all time, I paired this beauty with Girls, Girls, Girls by Mötley Crüe. Cheers and enjoy!

Poured into a Nonic.

Pours very hazy--almost pulpy level. Orange-gold. An exceptional foamy, sticky, clingy head. Outstanding retention. Excellent lacing.

Well--balanced aromas of citrus and pineapple and pine. A little spice (white pepper?)

Orange and pineapple forward. Quite a bit of resin in mid-stream, and it becomes stronger as the brew warms. Finishes peppery but not boozy. It looks like an NEIPA, but it avoids juicy territory in favor of a good balance. It's a little muddled, but it's tasty.

Beyond medium bodied, but not heavy. Good carbonation for the ABV level. Drying finish helps make this a fairly easy drinker for a DIPA.

A beautiful beer and a tasty one, too. The star is the feel and finish. 10% is often a danger level of booze for this style, as the word "sticky" can start to come to mind. Not a bit.
