Many thanks to DEdesings57 for this can!

A - Opaque medium golden orange color with thick, dense white sticky lacing.

S - Dank lemon-lime aroma with spicy citrus, peach, and some tropical fruit hits the nose.

T - Light lemon-lime, peach, some spicy fruit rind, citrus, and ends with a balanced finish that's more towards the sweet side. A little vinous and just a hint of herbal.

M - Full body, chewy, and coats the mouth with a healthy layer of hops that feel like cotton.

O - A solid D-IPA.

14 oz. pour on draught at the brewery. It pours an opaque, muddy gold color with a fluffy, milk-white head and spotty lacing. The nose is rather subdued on draught (I suspect it would be more bold out of the can) but there is lemon, onion, pine needles, just a whiff of vanilla, and lite floral hops. The taste is a lot more bitter than I anticipated. It opens with bitter, tart lemon and grapefruit with just a slight creamy sweetness. The Galaxy hops are strongly bitter but blend well with the always flavorful Motueka (a personal favorite). This ale has a nice, thick, creamy mouth feel with a pleasant level of carbonation, and the 8% ABV gives it a nice kick. Overall, this is another fine DIPA from Magnify. The Motueka is less apparent than I'd hoped. It's a bitter brew but there is enough fruit to make it interesting and enjoyable.
