Very good DIPA, darker looking than most in my experience. 140 ibu's. Much citrus kick with grapefruit and gooseberry with citra hops.

The 140 ibu is evident when you take your first sip. The gooseberry and lychee seem to mellow out the bitterness as you continue to drink it which I really enjoyed.

Beautiful sunset orange color, and cloudy, as if unfiltered. The high ABV is almost nonexistent while cold, but starts to appear more as it warms a bit. Nose is sweetbread, tangerine, and almost zero hop presence. The taste pulled me in. Tropical fruit and bursting with citrus. The mildly bitter hops linger a while longer than expected. Strong malt backbone balance this out well. My first beer from these guys, but will definitely go back for more in the future.

Odd notes of lychee and saccharine caramalt abound in this imbalanced build. Boozy warmth is overt, sweetness is high, and it has a strange candied vibe.

Hop profile is underwhelming...no vivid floral character, juicy fruit, oily resins, or sharp citrus. Just that odd lychee.

Diacetyl off-flavours run rampant, imparting an off putting buttery note. Ugh.

Difficult to enjoy. I would caution others from ordering if.
