Minimal aroma, strangely, and looks lager-like. But pretty good taste. Not super impressed but would try again

On tap at New Bohemia tap takeover. This was not my favorite DIPA ever but it was a solid undertaking and I really enjoyed it. Lots of hops in this.

on draft poured light brown to yellow color with white head...the aroma strong of piny hops and citrus blend. the medium bodied dipa was a shot of citrus and pine on first sip...almost to the point of palate cleansing. very strong on hops and yet very smooth and very tasty.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a clear golden brown on tap with dissipating off-white head and great lacing. Aroma of strong, west coast hops, piney and resinous. Taste is kick you in the face hops with highly bitter finish and a bit boozy near the end of the pint. Nice, big, ballsy DIPA.

Great DIPA.

12oz bottle thanks to Rusty Diamond, appreciate it! I split this with two friends and they both liked it and said it was good whereas I was disappointed. Nice orange color, smells liek a lot of hops alcohol and malt but very muddled. I almost wish I knew how old this beer was. The taste was like a very malty DIPA, I guess I was expecting something closer to Hopslam. Overall, I would take Hopslam over this beer every single time. In fact, I’m not sure why they felt the need to brew this since hopslam is so damn good.

Bottle pours a hazy golden/amber color with a thin off white top. Scent is grass and citrus. Taste is pine and citrus.

I took a sip of this about 8 minutes ago and there is still a finish. Outstanding beer with the quality one would expect from Bells.
3.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours golden with a reddish hue. The aroma is a noseful of hops and very floral. The taste has a lot of bitterness throughout, more than my liking. One of the lower dipas on my list. Kinda disappointing.
