Hazed to the moon and back again. Absolutely opaque. Slim chalk white head atop.
In the nose: Citrus hop notes. Trifle tropical, too. Bits of berries below. Starting shy, soon unfolding.
In the mouth: Bright, bold, assertive. Bursting with fruity hop goodness, but barely bitter. All that hazy lies lazy on the palate. Medium bodied, soft, easy going. 10 % ABV starts ringing in loud and clear. Getting richer and thicker as we continue. Fairly powerful stuff, and we're just getting started.
Sweetness kicks in, then turns dry. Temporary bitterness on the palate, while the booze gets bolder.

Can. Had it fresh and it was green with a hop bite. Waited 3 weeks to try again and it’s amazing. Hazy golden orange sunset. White head with lace.
Pineapple, mango, papaya. No hop bitterness. Soft and tropical. The 10% is no where to be found. It drinks incredibly easy. Another great triple ipa from BS.

Pours cloudy murky a dull yellow with a thin white head Smell very fruity. Taste is a huge potpourri of hops, melon,grape,white wine,citrus,berries ,pine,. Mouth feel was soft ABV well hidden. A wealth of hops in this one with the payoff not pay a dividend, 1 can enough
