What Our Editors Thought
"Berry and fleshy passion fruit on the nose; glimpses of berry-tannins and spice—oddly Pinot Noir-like. Sip wavers back toward tropical fruit/sweet/bitter, lean with flashes of sweet."
What Our Panel Thought
"Ripe tropical fruit basket: guava, mango, pineapple, papaya. Dominant tropical hop flavor, though less intense than expected; undertones of spicy pepper, light oak. Mouthfeel a bit thin. Finishes mostly dry, some harsher finishing notes, alcohol lingering a bit."
What the Brewers Say
"The hop profile in this DIPA is kicked up by Enigma, Simcoe, and Citra hops, providing tropical flavors that are hard to miss."
