Poured a nice hazy slightly orangish god with a brief but fluffy white head that left generous lacing, some nice surface foam and a solid halo. Nose and taste as advertised; rich with various tropical and oriental fruit with some orangey citrus. Both sweet and more complex melon flavors. Malt base combined with other grains ( ie oats and wheat) provides a tasty bready bottom as fruits float around it. Smooth easy drinking body. Pleasant sipper. Overall a very nice Imp IPA with combination of some traditional and non traditional flavors. Enjoyed. And curious to next Great Eight.
