Hopped with Galaxy, Citra, and Mosaic. The Urayuli. Peaceful counterpart to it's southeast cousin, Urayulis Stands nearly 10 feet tall with arms down to their ankles, covered in a thick fur. the easiest way to spot them is by their luminescent eyes. Unlike some yeti species, the Urayuli is said to be peaceful.

Picked up a single of this from Speedway Gas in Fallon, NV. They have a bunch of weird distro stuff, often out of date for double retail. Since this wasn't too bad of sticker shock, but lacked a canning date, I took a chance. I like the label.
Pours a light amber color, was expecting this to be a black ipa so I guess, surprise. 1/2" creamy small bubble head. The beer itself has a slight haziness to it. The aroma is seriously lacking the hops claimed. Mosaic? Nah. Same with Citra and Galaxy, I'm just not smelling it. Light honey malt note. Indiscriminate bittering hop note.
Taste was subpar. Only bittering hops are apparent. From there, its a bready two row, pale and honey malt kind of vibe to the malt bill that would probably be pretty good if this was a good/fresh beer. Because it has that bittering hop feel, there is a grapefruit rind, light wood and caramel presence. Its not excessive in its bitterness, it just makes up the majority of the mouth feel and lack of taste aspect.

Looks great- opaque straw yellow with a huge persistent head. Nose is citrusy hops. Taste is very big citrusy hops up front and throughout. Malt sweetness but there's not much character to the malt- probably to let the hops shine. You'd think it would be brighter but the overall effect is rather dank. Still very citrusy- oranges and lemons. Medium bodied, well carbonated. Maybe a little one dimensional or boring. But I'm liking it more as I drink it. Pretty good

Poured into a Tree House glass a very nice cloudy pale yellow color, with some very nice carbonation, with a very nice thick/creamy one-finger plus off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, peach, guava), with a nice little diesel like. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, mango, peach, guava), with a pretty nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV is hidden very nicely, with a pretty nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a very tasty brew. Very nice to see it around here. Orange Julius! Addictive! MilkShake!

Can to becher pint glass.
The appearance was a fairly murky woody orange color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head softly dissipating to leave some messy lace, somewhat thick.
The aroma had a fairly large amount of dry citrusy pith/rind hoppiness rolling into some peppery hop spice. Some pineapple sweetness.
The flavor leaned towards the dry hopping semi-sweet citrus/piney hop spicy tones. Subtle aftertaste of dry citrusy piney hoppy bitterness.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a sturdy sessionability about it. Good carbonation. Some smoothness with lingering bitterness just before it finishes semi-crisp and light, somewhat quick.
Overall, a very nicely done dry hopped APA, I'd have again.

Reading the hop list, I knew this was not going to be a pale ale for me. Very fruity and low bitterness. Not balanced and not very good to look at either. Not going to ding it very much since I knew what I was getting into when I made the purchase.

Aroma is fruit/floral and mild sweetness/tropical fruit/orange. The flavor is orange/juice, malts and a grapefruit hop/citrus peel/spicy/dryish finish.

"Batch 002"; no date, but assuming it was canned late 2019/early 2020. Drank 2/15/20 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque dull orange/yellow appearance.
A rough pour yielded a big off-white head; frothy lace.
Wheat, orange peel, pine & mild caramel notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Caramel, pine & orange citrus flavors; not my profile but drinkable.

Pours a hazy yellow with a thick white head, good retention and decent lacing. Aroma is faint pineapple and hops. Flavor is a mild mix of tropical and citrus fruits, a little hop bite in the finish. Feel is a bit watery. Overall a decent enough beer but nothing special.

No canning date.
Hazy orange, light head, no lacing post pour. Smells of light citrus, and degraded hops. Taste is very muddled. Citrus, but very very weak. MF is light-medium. Very little carbonation.
I'm suspecting that this has lost it's intended flavor profile. I actually went to the Abomination instagram page, to find it was announced Sept 25th. If correct, it's less than 2 month's old. Not sure what has happened here. I did purchase warm off the shelf.
