    Not quite as much bite tonight, but still a decent sting that I get from relatively few offerings.

    Not entirely accurate, but Dire Straits is on my mind:

    We are men of faith. We love our family. I kissed his sister on the lips while she was folding laundy, and she said, "You smell like IPA.". I told her, "Obviously." .This will be my last post for the evening.

    Incredible as always. Flavors of juicy grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, melon, passion fruit, berry, lemon/orange zest, and light pepper/pine hops; with moderate caramel, toasted biscuit malt; and herbal, floral, grassy hops earthiness. Light-moderate pine/grassy bitterness. Very smooth finish with balanced hop stickiness and bready creaminess in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing bitter dryness, never astringent. Has all the Mosaic and Citra hop flavors I love, with balanced bready malts to make it taste super juicy. Glad I decided to revisit this beer a while ago, a top favorite IPA for sure. Was not nearly as impressed the first time I had it.

    Fantastic DIPA! Better than I remember this year, I had to redo my entire review last month. Aromas and flavors of huge bright tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, coconut, citrus rind, pepper, and pine hops; with some honey, bready malts; and herbal, floral, grassy hop earthiness. Good amount of pine, citrus rind, herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation/body, and moderately crisp finishing. Balanced creamy/grainy malts and sticky/resinous/rindy hops in the mouthfeel. Moderately increasing lingering bitter dryness, no hop astringency. Aggressive, but not overwhelming. Amazing dank, vibrant, and juicy hop complexity; nice solid pale malt backbone, with no residual sweetness. Will likely grab some more singles after I finish off this 6 pack. Still pretty fresh, around 3 months. Short's IPAs always hold up extremely with a bit of time in my experience.

    Was hoping for more juicyness for sure. Not bad, this & the snake party were the best looking hoppy beers in the store. Tons of interesting Imp Stouts, relatively speaking

    I wonder if Sue the dinosaur was named so because his father knew he wouldn't be around to take care of him so wanted him to get picked on and grow up tough, into a mean son of a bitch, before meeting back up in later years only to nearly kill each other when we really find out the reasoning behind it all?

    That's plausible, right?

    That's the @TongoRad I know (as a personality from a beer site thread sorta way)

    :slight_smile:

    Maybe one day we'll fix the need for that parenthetical part. Cheers!
