Hazy iced tea color. Aroma of dull pine and floral hops but it is barely perceivable. Very bitter taste as with any IIPA but the evolution of the flavors really makes it interesting. It starts off very floral or fruity on the buds and then BIG hop the slam comes along. A little more well behaved than many unruley IIPA. I really like the way the taste morphs on each sip. Bitter lingering finish that reminds me of chewing grapefruit rinds that are not quite ripe. On target for an IIPA.
