What Our Editors Thought

"Classic American IPA forest and citrus aroma, with a warm friendliness. Light bitterness in the sip, a bit full on balance, with a chewiness that recalls IPA's earlier days."

What Our Panel Thought

"Classic aroma—wet earth, dank chronic. Orange and pine with some subtle hints of caramel and tropical fruit punch in the background. Background of overripe pineapple. Assertive bitterness balances the medium full body with a healthy dose of resinous pine and lemon. That firm bitterness lingers long into the dry finish and coats the palate well into the next sip. This is a bigger beer, medium bodied and somewhat filling."

What the Brewers Say

"Pours straw to pale gold, crystal clear w/ a thin white head. Front of the nose has hints of pineapple gummy bear and resiny cannabis w/ citrus notes in the background. Medium bodied w/ crisp champagne like effervescent mouthfeel. This San Diego Style West Coast IPA is bursting with tropical fruity dankness. Its bone dry, crisp bitterness will leave you thirsty for more."
