Poured from a crowler bought direct at the brewery in a red wine glass.
A: Clear amber with healthy light beige 1-2 foamy head with good retention and solid lacing.
S: Aroma is mostly dank and resin with light orange and grapefruit notes. Very classic WCDIPA nose.
T: Flavor steps up a notch from the aroma with more honeysuckle, pine, and floral notes that join the resiny, dank. Clean without esters. Moderate-high bitterness.
M: Medium body but very dry finish makes it very drinkable for the ABV.
O: Excellent delicious old-school WCDIPA.

Mostly clear gold/orange body. The white head initially was one finger high and settled into a nice ring with larger than normal bubbles. Scent of faint candied citrus, Taste was predominately hop bitterness with a trace of citrus and pine. Mouthfeel - thinner than I expected for a double IPA, with medium carbonation. Overall, I would like more balance... tone down the bitterness.

Fresh just canned it pours a gold hazy color wit fresh head and lacing. Smell is tropical its pineapple,citrus and peach. Taste follows nose very sweet and tropical hops finish with a touch of malts. Soft mouth feel with a sweet hoppy finish. A great 2IPA with a well hidden ABV.
