4.5/5
AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
22 ounce bottle into tulip, best by June 1st, 2011. Pours slightly hazy amber color with a nice 2 finger white head with amazing retention. Some slight lacing on the glass. Aromas of strong citrus, grapefruit, pine, and some caramel. Some strong aromas here as well. Taste of strong grapefruit, orange, pine, and some caramel. A strong bitterness on the finish that lingers for a while with citrus and pine flavors. Incredible balance of sweetness and bitterness as well. Super smooth drinking with absolutely no alcohol noticed in taste or finish. Medium carbonation and body. Overall, an amazing DIPA with a fantastic flavor and balance. Has everything I love about IPAs in it.
Just doing a re-review of this one. My palate has evolved, but I still love this beer.
