22 ounce bottle into tulip glass, best before 9/4/2013. Pours fairly hazy pale orange amber color with a 1-2 finger dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big orange peel, tangerine, pineapple, lemon zest, grapefruit, peach, floral, grass, light pine, honey, and floral earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/tropical hops, with a moderate malt balance that isn’t overpowering. Taste of orange peel, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, lemon zest, floral, grass, light pine, honey, bread, and floral earthiness. Fair amount of floral/pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of citrus, citrus peel, pineapple, peach, lemon zest, floral, grass, light pine, honey, and floral earthiness on the finish for a while. Excellent complexity and balance of citrus/tropical hop flavors; with a moderate malt balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a moderately creamy, sticky, and fairly crisp mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a highly excellent DIPA! Great balance and complexity of hop flavors, with a moderate malt balance; and very smooth to sip on for 9.8%. A highly enjoyable offering.

Danish pour at the VA Wine Experience tasting. Pours gold, bit of white head. Grassy, citrus aroma with a bit of grain. Taste is very well balanced. Not overly sweet, great malt balance. Surprisingly mild.

Keg in Holland, less aromatic and more full force bitter, got the alcohol kick. Nice brew, and it is in balance, I prefer more of the aromatic, still tasty...

Ar: caramel, butterscotch, resin, grapefruit, pineapple, pine, orange zest.
Ap: amber colour, medium off-white head, lacing.
F: big bite, resin, grapefruit, orange peel, caramel, bread, alcohol, long lingering metallic finish that ends warming.
P: medium to full body, small lively bubbles.
T: being a true hophead I usually don’t like too fat a maltbase, this beer however manages to both have a strong malt prescence and enough hops to punch through. It could have been more aromatic, but still very solid.
