22oz. "Sneak Release" bottling. Fruity, leafy, well-hopped nose, strong scents of lemon and pine arise, along with lighter notes of honey, flowers, pepper, doughy pastry and grapefruit. Deep golden copper color, clear, with a fine, slight head and thin wisps of lacing. Flavor profile is dominated by the hop character, strongly resinous, piney and bitter, with plenty of citrus throughout and a lightly sweet, syrupy malt undercurrent, finishing with a blend of lingering hop spice, warming alcohol and fresh lime. Acidic, oily and drying on the palate with a full body. Certainly quite flavorful and appropriately bitter considering the origin. Or is that triumphantly victorious? Perhaps a bit of both. Thanks to boboski.

Strong aroma of west coast hops, orange and pine, full malt as well, orange, small custard head. Taste is big time west coast hops with a decent malt backbone. Medium bodied, well balanced a beautiful mouth feel. Terrific! Thank You R.

Draught at Chef Paul’s Bavarian Lodge in Lisle. Clear dark amber with a thin bubbly off-white head. Supersweet piney soapy aroma. Quite bitter, greapefruit, seems like a double IPA with the strong hops and sweet malt. Full in the mouth, a bit sticky with a strong lingering bitterness.
