What the brewers say
“A West Coast–style double IPA from our SpyPA series, utilizing 5 different hops varieties.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Big honeydew-melon notes. Light tropical perfume, moderate crystal malt, and noticeable alcohol.”
Flavor: “Spicy alcohol notes actually work well here to blend with the rosy hops flavor. Bitterness is moderate but not overpowering. Smooth with the melon flavor dominating the profile.”
Overall: “It borders on blonde barleywine territory, but this beer is one that might cause me to leave my car at the brewery after enjoying more than I planned—it’s that smooth and drinkable. If this beer were getting its annual review in corporate America, it would get ‘Exceeds Expectations.’”
