What Our Editors Thought

A soft and slightly sweet grapefruit nose segues into a softly bitter sip that allows the sweet fruit notes to shine.

What Our Panel Thought

Classic American DIPA with rich citrus and pine hops character and a caramel-malt profile. A bit sweet on balance, but enough bitterness keeps things mostly in check. Warming, rich. A well-made version of the style, but missing some brightness and definition to make it stand out in the crowd.

What the Brewers Say

This DIPA, brewed with Mosiac hops and honey, offers up the intense tropical-fruit flavors of pineapple and grapefruit with a smooth lingering finish of soft honey.
