Our silky smooth DIPA brewed with Citra and Strata hops. Graciously dry hopped with the same varietals.

Interesting mix going on here...citrus-hoppy upfront, some melon (?) in the aftertaste! The advertised 8% extremely well-hidden! Dangerously delicious!!

16oz can. Poured out a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, khaki-colored head of foam. It left sticky sheets of lace on the glass. It smelled of melon, pineapple, orange and toasted caramel. It tasted of melon, orange, caramel, toffee and a sharp bitterness.

A: The beer is very hazy pale yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that quickly died down, leaving a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface and the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of honeydew melon are present in the nose along with hints of lime.
T: The taste follows the smell and has flavors of honeydew melon and stone fruit with hints of lime.
M: It feels medium-bodied and a bit juicy and smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is surprisingly juicy and smooth for an Imperial IPA and drinks rather easily because nearly all of the alcohol is hidden from the taste.
Serving type: can

Strong pineapple & tropical fruit aroma. Mouthfeel similar to the aroma: tropical, also carbonated feel. Finish is lacking a tad to me. Overall solid.

Pours a very hazy yellowish straw, slight off white head, extensive lacing. Nose of dank tropical fruits, also getting a bit of Wriggly Juicy Fruit gum.
Excellent taste, melon, tropical fruit, well balanced. Medium mouth feel
