Nice easy drinking DIPA, almost too easy. No real alcohol taste, but fruity and slightly sweet and no hop bite. Very well balanced but kind of non-descript generic flavor. A good beer but not great. From Costco in a 4 pack. Rated 5-22-2022

16 oz. Can

Poured into a Tree House glass a very nice dark golden orange color, with some very nice carbonation, with a very nice thick/creamy two-finger off-white head, which also leaves a very nice medium size island and some very nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, guava), with a pretty nice pineyness. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, guava), with a pretty nice pineyness. Medium body, ABV is hidden very nicely, with a pretty nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a very tasty beer.

16 oz can dated 040522 served in a pint glass. Thick and hazy, golden orange color, and loads upon loads of head. Classic citrus hop aroma with orange and lemon. Flavor is big on hops with more of that citrus bite. Hazy and a little bit juicy, but the flavors here are spot on west coast double IPA.

 

been cool to see some new beers come around from these guys in recent months, is was getting a little old newsy there for awhile. this is a nice one, not hazy but unfiltered looking for sure, hides its alcohol pretty well, isnt overly starchy or packed with body and as such is pretty drinkable as the imperial ones go, its almost creamy, lathery and frothy feeling, full but not heavy and more importantly not messy, this is quite professionally refined. dont love the packaging, but the beer is pretty, glowing a richer sunset golden tone with a short but stocky white head. it smells tropical as these go, mango notes leading sweet orange peel, a little toasted malt, and what might be some earthy wheat. hints of pineapple and light spiciness there too, clean ferment, off dry. the flavor follows, generic citrus, sweet mango, and white grape up front, some good bitterness later on, maybe slightly metallic late as temperature, but otherwise tidy and even brisk feeling with the beer drying out at the end. oily and even sort of dank and sticky, some weedy goodness to this, especially in the aroma. i like the malt bill, its not irrelevant but its only as big as it needs to be, so this isnt all that crazy to drink a bunch of, sneaky in that way. a nice beer, a bit more modern than i have gotten used to from these guys and their hoppy beer...

16oz can from Hops & Bottles. Hazy orange golden pour, thin silky white head. Aroma is tough to navigate, very faint citrus, latent maltiness. Taste is malty with light citrus. Not sure what they were going for. I miss the old Full Sail.
