Commercial Description:
First of the 7 Deadly BeeRs. Indulge your demons: Gluttony is the overpowering desire to consume more than one requires. 200 IBUs.
Gluttony Triple IPA overindulges the palate with profound malt, powerful hops and abundant body. Its deep decadent golden orange color presents an appetizing invitation for extravagant enjoyment. Its aroma entices with citrus, pine and alcohol while the flavor provides a smörgåsbord of sweet malt, fresh tangerine/grapefruit and a resinous hop character that lingers well beyond the finish.

Pours a deep, slightly hazy amber with a big fluffy white head that shows great retention and sheets of lacing down the glass. The aroma is a massive juicy sweet hop explosion. Grapefruit and pine play major roles with some sweet caramel maltiness in the background. The pine hops are prevalent up front in the taste and give way to a sizable caramel malt base. The citrus hops kick in after the malts and leave a nice sticky finish with a pleasant bitterness. Mouthfeel is smooth but sticky with hop resin with just the right amount of bitterness. A nice IIPA with great balance of big resiny hops and malts. A great start to my seven deadly sins experience and I’m eagerly anticipating the rest.

thanks to bitbucket tasting. Amber w/ medium head. Big beer w/ lots of piney hops and medium sweet malts coming through. I prefer my 2IPAs less resiny, but I still really enjoyed this.

Draft at brewery, tan head, cloudy amber color, citrus aroma. Strong citrus and juniper flavor, sweet yet very hoppy.

22, capped. Thanks, Derkruk! Pours cloudy copper with a lacy off-white head. Aroma of apricots, grapefruit, pine. Medium body, taste of citrus and pine. Pine resin finish with a dash of soap. Could stand a bit more body to balance out the pine.

22, capped. Thanks, Derkruk! Murky dark amber with lots of stationary bubbles. Dense and creamy tan head. Gorgeous pine and mango nose. Creamy, satisfying body. Lots of pine, resin, and grapefruit on the mid-palate. Resiny finish.
