American Style double IPA brewed with the local Pinnochio's Beer garden. This beer was brewed with Galaxy hops that gives it a passion fruit character in the aroma and flavor.

On tap at the brewpub in Media, PA.
Pours with a copper body. Good head and a good bit of sticky lacing. High clarity for an unfiltered DIPA.
Good bitter-sweet balance for style: not overly bitter. No off notes. Modestly fruity and moderately strong hop level. Hints of honey and passion fruit, with a a strong grapefruit peel finish.
Medium body and carbonation.

Hazed copper, white head has good retention and decent lace.
S/T - Hops up front, with big pine notes, tropical fruit, pineapple, honey sweetness. Really nice nose on it, taste has a slightly boozy finish, caramel malt backbone.
M - Medium body, good medium carbonation, smooth consistency and prickly bitter hops across the palate. Finishes bitter.
O - Nice honey-like sweetness brightens up the malt character. Good depth of hop flavor.

Not a big reviewer. Know what I like and like this a whole bunch. Tastey hopped up mutha. Btw my avatar is a pint of it so I obviously am a fan and kind of a homer. Drink fresh drink local. So why does my comment have to be a minimum of 250 characters. Isn't less more or something like that

Growler from Pinocchios.
A: Nothing Prettier than a really white head on an orange beer
S: Smells of citrust fruits, but the hops make themselves aware.
T: Wonderful sweet fruit quality, not overly bitter, great balance, but the best quality is that its pretty try and goes down smooth.
M: Good body, alcohol is masked well
O: Outstanding, hope their next anniversary is a DIPA
Serving type: growler

Recently had Pliny the Elder. Great beer, but seems to be overrated to due the lack of supply and huge demand. If you can get to Iron Hill within the next couple weeks try this beer and start supporting your local breweries. If you cant get your hands on good DIPA's like Pliny due to lack of supply then you can drink this and still be very pleased. Drink local.
