Howler poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass

A: Pours crystal clear golden yellow with a frothy off white head that settles to a light layer and leaves a little nice spotty lacing.

S: Citrus zest and resinous pine, slightly dank herbal notes, a little tropical and stone fruit, biscuity malt, and just a touch of caramel sweetness.

T: Resinous pine, citrus, lemon, lime, tangerine, and grapefruit, tropical and stone fruit, pineapple, peach, apricot, guava, strawberry, and melon, underlying dank herbal notes, biscuity malt, and just a touch of caramel sweetness.

M: Medium body, moderate carbonation.

O: Solid West Coast DIPA.

Cans gifted on 7/4 party.

Not my thing at all, has that earthy rotted hop smell I get from Enigma. Taste isn't much better as it portrays how I'd expect spoiled Galaxy water to taste. Will never repeat and will 'gift' the other can to someone else.

Sweet, tropical fruity, piney-hoppy, and mosaic dank nose on this one! Yum! Taste follows with a subdued sweet malty, hoppy, and piney-dank finish...some dank bitter notes linger for a bit, but balanced and not overpowering. This is how I want my westies to be, clean, crisp and dank...and it feels great on the palate! This is good stuff! And a nice palate break from the hazies! Ha!
