Commercial Description:
Brewed with four times as much hops as the leatherlips and balanced with more than twice as much malt. This is a deceptive golden ale. It has a nose of fresh hops, tastes of hops, and if that's not enough it is garnished with a hop. 70 ibu's

Clear copper color with a thin white head. Aroma of hops and alcohol. Flavor of alcohol with dominating spicy hops. Light body with a liquorous texture and very soft carbonation.

Good nose, sweet. Grapefruit, orange honey, toffee all in the mix. Golden orange color, small head that quickly dissappeared. Bitter flavors, like aromas, grapefruit rules. Thick body, very oily, bitter finish. Hot too. Good IIPA. Obviously alot like it’s little brother, I really liked the way it rolled on the tongue.
