Pours straight orange juice with little to no head.
Wonderful citrus hop smell and malt.
Definite imperial IIPA dank ness. Lots of citrus hop on the taste. You noon and garlic.
Big mouthfeel with a slight champagne zest.

Tasted in a Rastal Teku from a one pint can on June 17, 2018. Canned 06.13.18. Fresh by 08.13.18. Brewed with Citra and Galaxy hops. Another great double IPA from this series.

Canned 6/13/18; drank 6/16/18 @ the Yarchives.

Opaque orange/yellow appearance.

A violent pour yielded a HUGE off-white head; frothy lace.

Cream, lemon, dry grass & faint orange citrus notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Lemon & cream flavors up front; dry, bitter grass notes on the finish.

A bit simple & certainly too dry; drinkable but not one to seek out.

New 16 oz. can packaging vs. bombers! Born on 6/13 just a week old. Very citrus forward smell and taste. Crisp. Much better as it warms up a bit. Citra and Galaxy hops. Another very solid double IPA from Hubbard's cave.
