Aroma: “Heavy floral and herbal notes: honeysuckle, tulip, and rosemary. Gets slightly soapy as it warms. Light honey sweetness, with a light malt note.”

Flavor: “The flavor surprises with strong hops bitterness throughout. Some interesting malt complexity, with a touch of honey, caramel, biscuit, and bread crust. Hops flavors oscillate among dank piney character, floral notes, and grapefruit pithiness. Bitterness gets a bit astringent as it sits in the aftertaste. The finish is like grapefruit pith—hard to get out of your mouth.”

Overall: “An aggressive beer that uses some unique hops in an interesting way but gets a little lost with an overly bitter profile. It’s not too sweet, as some IIPAs can be.”
