Overall: A larger version of their flagship IPA. I've never bad a huge fan of the original 755, but thought this one has promise. Big ABV. Lots of orange, tangerine, melon, and mango skins. Slightly sweet, but light and cleaner for the ABV than I expected. Very nicely done from BlackStack. Impressive IPA. (Rating: 4.18)

Pours light yellow, hazy with moderate carbonation. The head is light, airy and leaves quickly with light flecks of foam on the glass. A light citrus aroma with maybe a hint of pine greets the nose. The taste is distinctly orange with a bit of lemon thrown in. It is light for a DIPA, very easy to drink and quite enjoyable. Deceptively easy to underscore but satisfying.

Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a one pint can on November 30, 2020.

 

 

 

 

 

Can. Hazy golden sunset color. White head with some lace.

Lots of orange. Very tropical, fruity, and citrusy. Mango with some papaya. Juicy. Soft. Some hops show, but not bitter. Hard to believe this is 8.8%. Very well done.

Pours a beautiful hazy glowing orange color. Smell is oranges with berries and some vanilla. Taste has oranges ,mango melon some pine resin and berries very nice. Super soft mouth feel from the wheat and oats, sweet with citrus. Its good but i prefer straight 755.
