Moderate pour yields a one inch pure white head over a hazy, light golden straw colored body with sticky lacing. Nose of fruit: tropical and citrus. Taste of the same with a very interesting transition to a semi-fruity dank bitterness with the slightest pine bitterness for a brief moment. Requisite Skadoosh feel (as always) with a moderately bitter finish. Overall, yet another fine IPA from the Skadoosh series. Cheers to John K. and the crew!!!!

A- Tallboy pours into a tulip with a hazy yellow body. The head rises up very quickly to two fingers high while having a thick and foamy texture. Great head retention and just massive webs of thick lacing on most of the glass.
S- Juicy fruit hop aroma that is really intense and a true nectar of tropical and stone fruit hops with perhaps a touch of bitter citrus as well. Notes of mango, passionfruit, pineapple, dank weed, onion, guava, lemon-lime, melon, floral and herbal hops. Hints of medium sweets, oats, sticky pale malts and bread. Very bright.
T- Interesting shift from the aroma but still a strong and balanced hop profile that seems to be altered by the strong herbal/citrusy bitterness on the taste buds. Sticky herbal dankness, hints of pepper, grapefruit, tangerine, melon, pineapple, tea and a bit of the juicy tropical fruits but not quite as much here. Overall quite floral/herbal/spicy in the taste.
MF- Moderately thick and downright chewy/creamy texture. The carbonation is at a medium level. Ends with a sharp herbal, citrus oil bitterness.
Really can't go wrong when getting beer from The Alchemist and this is another IPA that brings unique flavor and an astounding aroma. This kind of beer is exactly what a rotating IPA series is for.

A-Thick hazy orange juice through and through, with a fluffy white head that lingers and promotes confident lacing
S-Sweet tangerine, Elements of grapefruit pith, with ripe stone fruit and subtle notes of cream.
M-Velvet smoothness and full bodied with a clean resin feel. Medium prickly carbonation
T-Full blown juice bomb, with a grapefruit pith bitterness that balances the sweetness well and lingers on the palate. Great malt balance...British malts, I presume.
O-Outstanding juicy NEIPA. I am presuming the base recipe allows for any hop to be showcased in all its glory. Incredibly crafted.
