Slightly hazy ruby with nice head retention seems too dark for a traditional ipa... HUGE grapefruit nose followed by a bit of pine, not as much malt as expected in the nose... Flavor is citrusy and piney, good flavor, but not great, not up with the best... Weirdly watery body...

bottle - sweet berry like aroma, mild hints of a chinook meatiness, but not what I would call hoppy at all in the nose. color is copper orange. Flavor is mild for a DIPA - on the sweet side with a mystery berry flavor - only medium to light hoppiness. At least it doesn’t have that sickly sweet over maltiness that you see in some CA DIPAs.

Bottle Pours a hazy amber with a good off white head. The head lasts well. Has a strong citrus hoppy aroma. Some floral and grapefruit. Has a good IPA taste, nice and bitter strong and crisp. Has a great finish. Great carbination and a good mouthfeel. A nice oily texture. The high abv is blended vey well. This is wonderful beer. Just awesome.

Tulip glass from bottle. Pours an amber red color with a fluffy white head. Floral and citrus in the nose, with ruby grapefruit, tangerine, and navel orange on the tongue. Red honey, sweet and tasty in the finish.

Bottle in a trade. Pours an amber body with an off white head. Big hop character earthy, floral, green, grassy, light citrus, and some tangy grapefruit. Good brew.

Had this liter bottle at Penn Stater Hotel. what a nice surprise. Really aromatic double IPA, with deep golden color, not much head, fair lacing, and some subtile almost perfume bitterness. Lingers but not so long as to impede the next drink.

(22oz. bottle) Pours a hazy orange body with a medium-sized off-white head. Aroma of grapefruit, spruce, and caramel. Flavor of citrusy hops and caramel malt with a dry, bitter finish.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Nose is celery and carrots. Taste is burnt toasty malt with some citrus. Some sweat on the back end.
