Pours a very cloudy opaque golden color with a thick foamy head. Head retention is excellent as is lacing. Aroma of tropical citrus and mango. Juicy mango on the taste with hints of lemon. Medium bodied with mild to moderate carbonation.

 

Poured from a can into a snifter
Appearance – The beer pours a very hazy yellow-orange color with a one finger head of thick white foam. The head has a fantastic level of retention, fading over time to leave an amazing level of thick foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is strong of a grapefruit and orange mixed with a good showing of papaya and mango. Along with these smells some notes of a yeastiness and some breadiness as well as a little bit of pine and herb. A very light hay and oat smell are there as well with a touch of lemon rounding it all out.
Taste – The taste begins with a bready and oat malt base that is matched with some of the sweeter tangerine and tropical fruit tastes that were also present in the nose. There is a rather decent showing of grapefruit and pine hop upfront, with the former getting stronger as the taste moves forward. All the while mustiness and herb show up on the scene with some of the bready and oat fading. At the same time a light hay and lemon develop as well, and with a touch of grain and raw hop one is left with a rather pleasant, somewhat sweeter and maltier, and decently hop blended taste too linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is slightly thicker and more-chewy with an average level of carbonation. For the maltier tastes the feel is good and makes for a nice sipper.
Overall – A rather decent hazy double. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but pleasant and flavorful none the less.

 

Ripe tropical and citrus fruit hit the nose.
Mango nectar and papaya begin the taste, followed by bitter hops and finishing with sweet cantaloupe.
Another solid, complex brew from EQ

 

16oz can poured into a nonic; deep golden haze with some floaties from the bottom of the can, ample off-white head. Strong notes of ripe tropical fruit, mango and papaya, orange and lemon citrus. Fairly pronounced bitterness on top of that thick hoppy-sweet character. Seems very similar to the other EQ DIPA's i've been sampling.

 

 

A: The beer is very hazy pale and a bit murky pale yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left lots of lacing on both the surface and the sides of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of honeydew melon are present in the nose.
T: The taste starts off with flavors of melon and follows with additional notes of orange citrus and hints of papaya. There is a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied and a bit crisp and juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: The taste of this beer is bursting with lots of fruity flavors from the hops. It also drinks quite well for an Imperial IPA.
