What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “Rich and complex candied orange and pineapple with some pine. Extremely effervescent. Just great! Low-medium malt sweetness is there as is low alcohol sweetness. As the beer warms, the aroma centers on earthy dank pine hops.”

Flavor: “Hops profile is explosive! Tropical flavors, citrus-peel bitter, lightly caramel sweet, lingering bitterness.”

Overall: “Smooth and well rounded, this hits all the IIPA notes. Tasty and full with appealing lingering bitterness.”

What the Brewers Say

“Massively dry-hopped, with a balanced malt sweetness. Hops cubed, then squared (hops to the sixth)! We’ve kept the same malt recipe proportions as Loose Cannon, capturing its beautiful balance, but doubled the fire power.”
