A hazy orange beer with a huge fluffy orange head. The aroma is sweet malty and spicy with lighter notes of caramel and alcohol. The flavor is sweet alcoholic - the alcohol biting the tongue, combined wiht light notes of spices and citrus, leading to a dry alcoholic end. The body is quite thick.

Objectively speaking: An ambitious 29 hop project that was really useless as the hop profile feels very simple in the end.
I like: Lacing for a 10%+ beer. White grapefruit.
I dislike: Lack of earnestness 29 hop claims. Strong alcohol, fuselic even. Slick body. Dullness, no excitement toward the next sip.

Bottle... Clear, golden ale with a large, creamy, off-white head. Good retention. The aroma is DFH 90 Minute IPA-ish.... fruity and citrusy with just a little evergreen. Well-hopped, but balanced flavor with notes of pineapple and a nice, malt backbone. A touch salty. Full-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Medium bitter finish with more subtle salt at the wee end. Thanks go out to artusory for sharing his bottle of this!

Pours a transparent copper with a thin, lightly-lacing off-white head. Very complex floral hoppy aroma has a dense caramel malty balance. Body starts with some full, sticky caramel malt and plenty of grapefruity hop presence. Good complexity throughout, but has some burn in the finish. Interesting brew and if it hid its alcohol better, it would be really good.
