Super dope, dank funky hop nose. Shit is super fresh. Taste is lightly sweet, lightly bitter, lots of citrus hops, some honey. Very solid, unfortunately the taste didn’t live up to the aroma.

bottle courtesy of oscarmike, thanks! this is a tasty iipa no doubt, but i found the low carb plus heavier body to be not as appealing to me, i much preferred the triple play and would probably even take the chinooker’d over this one again. still not bad by any means, but the low carb just doesnt seem to open up the hop profile in your mouth as well. imo.

Huge, huge thanks to imagineiii for sending this bottle my way. I’ve been looking to try this for awhile now. Served in a Bruery tulip. Pours a bright, clear golden yellow color with a good white head and plenty of lacing as it goes down. The nose immediately lets me know that this is going to be delicious. It has loads of citrus character along with a bit of pine; slightly dank. Great hoppiness. The flavor carries the same notes, and the citrus hop character pairs really well with a great amount of bitterness. Very good. Light to medium body with a great dry finish. Very, very nice overall.

Thanks to deuane for sharing this one with thain709 and myself. I have wanted to try this one for a little while now, thanks for the chance buddy. A - Pours murky golden orange with a nice one finger tall white head leaving light rings of lace down the glass. I got the last of the bottle so mine was a little murkier than the others. S - Smells of pungent grapefruits, citric hops, fresh pine needles and a growing caramel sweetness. I would say that the nose is the best part of this beer. T - Starts off with a nice citric hop punch quickly giving way to hints of pine resin, sweet caramel malt, fresh cut grass and some light citric fruit. The fruit and hops are fading quick but there is still plenty there to carry this one to the finish. Finish is pretty dry, lingering for some time. M - Medium body and flavor with moderate carbonation. Smooth, hoppy feel leaving the pallet dry, as it should, long after the finish. O - I am pretty sure this one was around two weeks old and it was pretty good. The taste was a bit of a letdown from the nose but it was still very easy to drink and it packs lots of flavor. Can’t wait for my next run in with this one.

Bottle (22 oz). Thanks to Nick! Golden/orange with a medium persistent off-white head and good lacing. Aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, slight caramel, slight resinous notes and subtle herbal presence. Taste is moderately sweet with tropical fruits, slight caramel/malt, resinous presence, citrus, slight herbal presence and moderate bitterness. Medium body. Good carbonation. Dry. Very good DIPA. Extremely drinkable and well balanced.

Thanks to Jeremy for sharing at Darklord. 7 days old. Damn good IPA. slightly bitter mix of citrius and floral, easy to drink. Had it a bit warm but still fantastic.

22oz bomber. Pours a cloudy golden orange color with a thick white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma of pineapple, grapefruit, mango, lemon, orange, and A little funky sweat sock smell. Taste is bready/buttery malts, citrus, tropical fruits, and some sharp pine bitterness. My first beer from Lawson's and a great beer it is!

22 ounce thanks to 46er3498. Big grapefruit and pine nose. Aroma and taste is hoppy and floral. Big mango taste. This is awesome. Thanks, Tom!

Pours a light hazy orange with a medium off white head that laced. Aroma of tropical fruits, citruss notes, herbal and light caramel malt with other solid malty notes. But malt def takes a back seat. Flavor of a nice malt that balanced a great hop selection. Moderate bitterness. Citrsu and piney.
