Pours light golden with minimal head. Nice strong hops aroma, floral, citrus, and pine. Taste is heavy with sweet grapefruit, floral notes, nice malty backbone. Finish was nice and bitter. This is a great brew.

Rising sun hazy orange-tan with an ok head. Towards the end of the bottle, it becomes incredibly couldy and a milky caramel color. Rarefied honeysuckle hop aroma with doses of apricot and Cascade hops. The flavor flaunts Cascades and Amarillo at the outset, licking the palated with honeyed and floral sensations, though Chinook bitterness begins to bite deeply into the tongue. A potent beer and very bitter. Wonderful complexity of aromas and flavors. Wheat adds a full body and increases sourness on the finish.

Orange body. Active legs. Thick white head. Pine, orange fruit, and floral hops. Initially sweet with a bitter finish. I like unearthly and was underwhelmed with hoppe, so this was somewhere in the middle for me.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Has a malty hoppy bitter aroma with hints of pine needles. Sweetish malty hoppy bitter pine needles flavor. Has a sweetish malty hoppy bitter finish with a long bitter aftertaste.

Nice general IPA nose with a nice hazy pour and plenty of foamy head. Scents of hops dominate the nose. Beautiful mouthfeel with a nice bitter, hoppy taste. Complimented nicely with a roasty, full bodied finish. Very nice beer for the IPA lover.

Bottle split with AndyDeputy. Pours a orange body- just slightly hazy. Aroma is fruits - grapefruit, and citrus flavors. Palate is not as smooth as Oak Aged Un eartly - more hops present. A great beer. ANTS IN THE SKY!

I had this in philly on tap at some place that was cool, dont remember the name though. It was only a few blocks from constitution hall. I love imperial ipa’s and this did not dissapoint. It had a definite right coast vibe to it. The hops were to fierce, but still bold, wet and flowery. Solid
