They go by many names: The Man in the Mask & The Beat Konducta. Viktor Vaughn & Lord Quas. King Gheedorah & The Loop Digga. Mosaic & Strata only seemed right. This is but a humble liquid homage to a classic. Just trying to show MAD respect, this beer was DOOM’d from the start.

ALL CAPS pours a bright yellow with a large, long-lasting, frothy, lacing head. The aroma features numerous sweet melon notes. The flavor has a hint of dank hemp, and lots of sweet melon notes. Good feel. Overall, a very flavorful and sweeter hazy IPA, with lots of melon notes.

From an undated 16oz can. From the brewer’s website: “ Our annual ode to The Man in the Mask & The Beat Konducta. Viktor Vaughn & Lord Quas. King Gheedorah & The Loop Digga. Hefty doses of hand selected Mosaic & Strata for one of our all time favorites only seemed right. This is but a humble liquid homage to a classic. Just trying to show MAD respect, this beer was DOOMed from the start.” Very nice DIPA.

True to Black Stack style. Pours hazy straw color and is very appealing with some soapy white head. Grapefruit, mango, orange and pine. Hits the sweet spot for double for me at 8 percent to avoid being syrupy.

Can. White head. Lace. Hazy golden orange color.
This is a pineapple, melon, mango juice bomb. Papaya and orange mixed in. Incredible soft with no bitterness. This is super drinkable and crushable despite the 8+% abv. One of my favorite black stack ipas to date.

pours a hazy dull straw color with vey thin head or lacing. Smell was dank and fruity Taste had notes of melon and berries mixed with dank tropical fruit ,hint of strawberry and mango. Soft mouthfeel with a hoppy sweet finish. Only bought a single and glad i did worth a try but BS DIPAS all taste the same.
