Enjoyed it in a short fluted glass poured from draft at the brewery.
Excellent head and lacing with hazy yellow body. Strong orange and pineapple smell and taste. Some lemon and lime, very hoppy with a pleasant bitterness. Great beer!

Pours a murky lighter orange color. The head is 1 finger, frothy, with decent retention and minimal lacing on the glass.
The nose is as expected - quite rich with hops. I seem to get pineapple, grapefruit, and some mango.
Taste - Much like the nose - grapefruit, mango, pineapple. The pineapple seems to be the flavor that lingers in my throat. There's also a slight crisp bitterness in that backside as well.
The body is decent. There's a creamy feel to it. The hops do linger in my throat, and I feel it all the way down.
Another solid beer from Turning Point Beer. Very impressed with this young brewery.

Pours an opaque orange with two fingers of dense white head.
Smell is grapefruit with pineapple and mango highlights.
Taste follows, pineapple, mango, grapefruit. Well balanced with a bit of a pithy finish that I enjoy.
Full bodied and smooth with a good carbonation level.
Overall as tasty one from a brewery that is definitely on my radar now.

Appearance - Pour opaque like orange juice thick white head that recedes to a think ring. Sheets of lacing around the glass.
Aroma - Overly ripe pineapple and orange, floral hops, touch of alcohol, grapefruit, little candied sugar.
Taste - Lots of ripe pineapple and mango without the sweetness, floral hops, grapefruit, bitter citrus peel on the end. Looks and feels like a NEIPA but has well balanced flavors leaning more toward bitter than sweet. Great flavors.
Feel - High side of medium bodied creamy smooth soft feel with a pretty dry finish.
Overall - Very well done Imperial IPA other than a hint of alcohol on the nose the 8.2% is well hidden. great flavors very smooth and soft mouthfeel.
