Sunday Transfer was brewed and double dry hopped with a bunch of Citra, Strata, Mosaic and Idaho 7. Expect a soft mouthfeel and bitterness paired with tropical hop notes.

Deep orange color, slight boozy citrus smell, sweet boozy citrus taste with a dry slightly bitter finish. Mouthfeel is thick and soft. Not my favorite from Masthead. Decent but nothing to seek out.

I had complained that Masthead had not canned some of their better brews. They had this whole line of great stouts I have never seen anywhere except the brew pub. This is a huge, well made, hazy IPA that really distinguishes itself and deserves the rather high price tag it commands. I guess they do can some of their greats.
This thing pours a dangerous and sticky looking muddy yellow. This is a whacked looking hazy, for sure. The aroma was the first thing that hit you - it was extraordinarily strong. Finishing hops fill the air like never before. One taste and you know all that finishing smell is all bittered up in the taste too. It is very bitter! I think when I drank the other can I bought a week ago it was the same, so it is aging OK, but if you have this, and you are reading this, DRINK IT!
The finish is strong, but the bitters are enough to completely overwhelm the alcohol. It's very addictive.
Highly recommended. Just for the smell, and the rest of the experience is great too.

Hazy dark maize with a short off-white head that collapses first in the middle.
Graham malt and a boozy heat delivered by a crackly carb introduce this somewhat unsuccessful take relative to their other stuff. The biting heat is accented by orange rinds before coming to a powder dry finish.

From a 2-week-old can, pours a very hazy dark orange. Smell is bursting with tropical fruits, citrus and that earthy, musky Citra aroma. Taste follows. Some nice, drying bitterness in the finish. Love this beer, love this brewery.

Served in a stemless wine glass
This beer pours a dark yellowish orange hue. It is topped with a couple inches of creamy beige head that leaves some nice lacing.
Big citrus aroma. Slight medicinal smell.
Citrus flavor. Grapefruit rind. Some bitterness in the finish but not much.
Medium bodied with a slightly chalky mouthfeel
Solid IPA. Not my favorite from Masthead.
