Second best only to Heady Topper. I was lucky enough to score a 4 pack the brewery before the renovation and WOW. High ABV, but top notch quality. Please bring this one back.
Tropical fruit forward, ending with a citrus/cannabis/pine/mouth kick finish.

Hoppy, dank, spicy and boozy with a bitter bite, this delivers notes of triple sec, sharp mango and pine. The amber body has a chill haze with a persistent tall khaki foam. As usual Alchemist puts out another very well made, old school and punchy strong IPA. The dankness is both catty and cannabic with touches of peach and pumpernickel cracker.

A - Medium orange with creamy lacing.
S - Light fruitiness with a hit of melon/berry.
T - Melon, berry, and some citrus. Starts out with some melon and builds momentum finishing strong and bitter with a long lingering citrus bitterness.
M - Big thick body with some lip smacking stickiness. Very dry on the back of the tongue.
O - Solid. Glad to have tried but not one of my favorites from this brewery.
