I'm usually into DIPA and Stout. I was in Dallas not too long ago and the chance to try this beer out. At the tippy top of my list. One of the best blends of hops I've ever tasted with the tiniest hint of citrus. Really good color... the only problem is I didn't buy near enough of them to bring home.

Poured into a 13 oz tulip glass not sure when it was canned. Pours a very hazy yellow orange with a solid finger of sticky white head that leaves loads of wavy lace with excellent retention. 4.5
Smell is apricot, guava, mango, tangerine, lemon, and a little grapefruit rind. 4
Taste follows but better mango, lemon, guava, apricot, and just a gentle kiss of grapefruit bitterness. 4.25
Mouthfeel is pretty big, soft gentle feel, sticky but not dry, and at 7.1% ABV very approachable but drinks bigger in flavor. 4.25
Overall this is excellent, never had heard anything about the brewery, but now thanks @Nachos4two I have. Excellent stuff! 4.25

Very aromatic beer, and the hops are not overwhelming. The first DDHIPA I tried from Tupps was the Series 6, which this compares favorably to. One of my favorite 3 IPAs right now, along with 90 min and Two Hearted Ale - different, yet all excellent.
