Light hazed white grapefruit juice. Juicy citrusy hop aroma and flavor; no real boozy character. Good balance with moderate bitterness. Medium bodied and smooth.

Hazy pour and very juicy body, hence the name.
Wouldn’t have guessed that this was a 9%, sneaks up on you.

Smells good but taste like no other beer I've ever had. In a bad way. It is not at all bitter and has a faint floral note as its only taste. The high alcohol content makes it feel and taste acidic. Has an almost papery, dry feel. With a more distinct, pleasant flavor I would like this much more.
If your interested in high ABV this is your jam. It hides it scarily well.

Deep gold hazy pour with a full citrus nose. The flavor departs from your typical NEIPA's in that once you've received the grapefruit/pine taste up front, there is an infusion of berry/honey sweetness in the mid-taste, as well as a subtle spicy flavor that follows. Interesting beer that hides its torqued up 9% ABV well.

19.2oz can. Poured out a clear, golden orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It left sudsy lacing on the glass. It smelled of grapefruit, orange, pineapple and caramel. Great tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a piney, bitter punch.

$4.25 @ The Beer Peddlers, Phila., PA
Notes via stream of consciousness: A hazy golden body is capped by a short lid of white foam. The aroma is fruity with notes of lychee, soft orange, and sweet berries backed by a ittle bit of woody spiciness. On to the taste... well the aroma doesn't lie. The malt is sweetish and grainy, and there doesn't appear to be any oats or wheat in use - that's a pleasant change for me, not that I don't love oats but it's refreshingly different. The hops offer up notes of lychee, gooseberry, orange, peach, and mango as well as some minor woodiness, earthiness, and subtle spiciness. It's not that bitter at all given the amount of malt present, and yet it somehow finishes mainly dry. Perhaps that's because of the alcohol although I find that really well cloaked. It's there, yes, but no more than it should be and not in a harsh way at all. Yeah, I'm really digging this one. In the mouth it's medium bodied on the fuller side and gently crisp and then smooth. I was expecting a bigger version of Duck, Duck, Juice with this but it's actually a quite different beer altogether.

single can courtesy of my brother and selected from the beer fridge by me, i did no work on this but got to fully enjoy, lucky me. its a great, and very sneaky, big ipa, drinks tropical and juicy as the name suggests, no labor here at all, great balance, not super malty and without a lot of appreciable alcohol either, even as it warms, could be dangerous, probably best we only have the one! unfiltered looking but not real hazy, very pale with just a tint of rusty orange glow, but this is not much deeper than blonde, frothy white headed and well carbonated enough to be uplifting. it smells like pineapple and tangerine from the hops, carries a little pine, juniper, and bitterness too, botanical snap but not a ton of intensity, very fruity, summery, and clean on the ferment, just a little balancing residual sugar, but light as these go in every way. tangerine and sweet orange is the lead in the taste for me, but i get guava and passion fruit and pineapple as well, a little pine sap, honey oil dab type weed, coconut lacroix, peach candy, and with only a suggestion of alcohol, drier than many so gone pretty quick, lovely proportions, a nice hop profile too, very solid overall, good recipe and execution, cool can, not too big for a warm early summer afternoon. always loved these guys, cool to check in with them again even all the way out in idaho, appreciate the send! juicy forward and delicious.

Very one dimensional DIPA that is juicy, sure enough, but has omitted too many things to be great. It does have a deep fruity ester dimension that is its saving grace. Flavor notes are mostly orange and mango. The lack of an overall bitterness and dank quality is noticeable. Alcohol is mostly well hidden but can be detected, in this case it is a welcome addition to its complexity. Overall this is approachable and enjoyable in its own way, but is a bit too one dimensional to be upper tier

Delicious and surprisingly fruity, this beer still drinks like an IPA without the hops overpowering the flavor. It looks beautiful poured out in a glass. Alcohol content is higher than I usually want, but manageable. I would certainly drink this again.

Picked up a single nineteen ounce can at Cedarville Wine and Spirits in Plymouth, Massachusetts for about three dollars. My eighth brew from these guys. Nice brew.

12oz can servd in a tulip. Pours a lovely orange hue with a slight haze to the clarity and a loose, 1/8th inch, off-white head embedded with pinpricks. Nose reveals candied ornage notes. Taste follows nose with a tangy quality at the back. Mouthfeel is medium in body with an even carbonation and a mild acidity. Overall, drinkable with a well-hidden abv without much complexity.

Pours cloudy hazy yellow orange gold with a dense creamy white foam head. Smells like tropical and citrus fruits, white grape, gooseberry, melon, kiwi, apricot, some caramelized malt, and earthy grassy dank pine. Tastes like white grape, gooseberry, kiwi, juicy fruit, melons, orange citrus, grapefruit, tropical mango, pineapple, apricot, peach, slight caramelized bready wheaty malt, with dank earthy herbal grassy pine. Feels medium plus bodied, creamy with smooth moderate carbonation. Overall a nice imperial IPA.
