Focus on your breathing and the tastes of the Universal Sound! This beer has been years in the making. A Double IPA that drinks easy despite the high ABV & IBU. It's cleanly bittered followed by crazy amounts of Simcoe, Galaxy, & Citra for the aroma & flavor that IPA lovers are sure to enjoy. Listen. Breathe. Drink. Repeat.

Honestly the best tasting imperial ipa I've had in a very long time more on the sweeter fruity side which i myself prefer. Would definitely get again.

Tasted on tap at the brewery restaurant in January 2022. This was an enjoyable Imperial IPA, with noteworthy clarity. It looked very light and innocent in the glass! The aroma was very nice for a DIPA, but the taste and mouthfeel were just average. I think it could have used more malt flavor to balance the hops, because it came across as a thinnish IPA, rather than a balanced DIPA.
