Bottle thanks ericandersnavy. Pours with a small white head over a clearish golden body. Aroma is pungent hops (I get a lot of Simcoe), some other citrus hops, toffee and marijuana. Taste is pine, earthy and mango hops. Good stuff. Light bubbles, some alcohol and a bit dry on the palate.

Bottle thyanks to ericandersnavy. Pours a murky light gold with white head. Aroma is somewhat piney. Flavor is strong, hoppy, piney, grassy, alcohol, and strong bitter. Mouthfeel is medium-heavy with medium-high carbonation. Overall, good stuff!

Pours a pretty ugly pale yellow with decently thick head. Aroma is bursting with citrus hops and huge bitterness- definitely plenty of cascades in this. Pale malt adds just the right amount of sweetness to this, and a bit of fruitiness comes out. Flavor is ridiculously bitter and amazing. Extremely resiny and delicious.

Bottle courtesy of Jason. Good citrus lights up the nose and says man this is a good beer. Copper body with white head and medium lacing. Dry bittering in the flavor but also some citrus oranges/ grapefruits. Citrus vine dry resin left on palate. Much like pliny the younger jast had over the weekend. Thanks Jason.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden amber colour with a thin white head and no real lacing. Aroma is mostly piney hops and some sweet oranges. Flavour is like biting into a grapefruit rind followed by some sweet pink grapefruit hops. Bitterness in the finish combined with a little alcohol heat might actually make your lip tingle a little. Well done.

12 oz. Golden with a small ring of bubbles. Aroma of resin, grapefruit, caramel and light urea. Flavor is a nice mix of the same, with more grapefruit. Light medium body is hop-dry, tingly and crisp.

Bonus bottle from JB175, thanks Jason! As vibrant and flavorful as if on tap - was worried, too, as the cap came off WAY too easy. Aroma is surprisingly mellow - only the lightest of hops and minerals. Flavor is dandycane, being bright hops, a creamy texture, and having a crisp finish. Hops are grassy with slight lemon and a minute pineapple. Very very great.
