UPDATED: OCT 18, 2021 Nose starts with overripe tropical fruits, than faint apples and going to red berries. Cool. Intense hops. Long, bitter finish

UPDATED: JUL 11, 2020 Bottle. Gold in color. Aroma is grapefruit and citrus. Taste is slightly sweet upfront with a bitter finish.

UPDATED: FEB 20, 2020 12 oz bottle. Smells of sweet malts with a touch of hops in the background. Smells sweet. Light orange with a light haze. Tastes of grapefruit, I think centennial hops. Sweet and bitter at the same time. Its a blast of sticky sweet malts followed by resinous bitter. This one has a sticky mouthfeel, boozy. Leaves a sticky feel on the lips and in the mouth. Not my favorite high ABV from Founders.

UPDATED: JAN 16, 2020 Melon orange color with minimal head. Aroma is bitter hops and some big time sweet malts. Flavors are similar, bitter and sweet, witha significant alcohol presence. I don't think the flavor or aroma is with the big alcohol price tag. I can get as good or better beer for far less alcohol. 6/3/5/3/15

UPDATED: DEC 4, 2019 From bottle to glass. Pours copper-orange with sustained white head. Orange and dank aroma follows through to a cloying /sticky citrus and dank flavor. Overt crystal malt.

UPDATED: OCT 20, 2019 Couleur cuivrée limpide avec une mousse généreuse et balèze sur la durée. Nez sur les agrumes sans trop d'excès. En bouche c'est un peu plus violent : agrumes, caramel et surtout ou grosse amertume astringente couplée à une finale sèche mais un corps relativement rond. L'alcool ne ressort pas excessivement malgré les 9,4%. Une Double IPA old school qui fait le job.

UPDATED: AUG 19, 2019 Draft, pours clear copper with thin but dense white head. Full bodied. Grapefruit aroma. Malt foundation with more resin than citrus hops in the smooth taste. Piney bitter finish. Mighty fine.

UPDATED: AUG 9, 2019 Slightly hazy deep golden with a large foamy white head. Nice hop forward nose that’s piney and floral and just the teeniest bit of green onion. Smooth full body with nice malty tones and a balanced leafy floral hop bitterness. Smooth but full. Hops still shine through the firm malty base with a hint of citrus and pine.
