Crafted with our buds down at Confluence Brewing in Des Moines after a communal conference about unclear IPAs. Fully flogged with an outrageous overabundance of our hand-selected Mosaic & Azacca, with Experimental HBC 1019 & Australian Galaxy. Holy buckets… Don’t you think it’s all a little bit much?

Sister’s new favorite, gift can poured into glass at home. Good but concentrated, smooth but can tell it’s high ABV.

On tap at The Brass Tap, Cedar Falls, IA; served in a 5-ounce snifter. Pale yellow in color, with a bright white head. Good retention, decent lacing. Aromas and flavors of grapefruit, pine, and citrus zest. There is also a note of umami on the palate, which I often detect in imperial NEIPA's. Flavor is not quite as "juicy" as I anticipated. Silky mouthfeel, understated bitterness, and a clean finish round out the profile. Recommended.
