10-year redux of a 2008 version by Nash. Recreated here for an anniversary of sorts, and a nod to the winding road that led us here.

The haze to its golden honey body doesn't look like yeast slurry or a like dollop of flour was dropped into it and I respect it for that. Au natural. A thick white head with good stick forms on top. It grabs to the sides of the glass like glue.

Sweet resiny hop candy oozes outwards. Pithy grapefruit and unripe pineapple are bound by sticky green and bad traffic. A graham crackery/honey laden malt backbone is close by, as is a lick of ethanol.

Sappy, bitter leafy greens and pine needles are like primer coating the mouth. Pineapple and grapefruit are layered on top with a flash of fruity pebbles following suit. The middle is honey sweet on the sides. The grassy coarseness in the finish accentuates the punch that it carries.

Medium to full in weight and sticky and dry at the same time. There's a streak of alcohol to its back side that really magnifies its dryness and bitterness.

An old school, to the point, punchy DIPA with plenty of sap and bitterness. There's a lot of ways an IPA/DIPA can be done and Greg Nash knows how to do them.
