What Our Editors Thought

“Rich tropical tones in the aroma with guava, kiwi, and passion fruit. Light but oily in the sip, dripping with tropical fruit, just a bit of dank mineral structure, and a light pithy tropical bitterness that speeds into a quick finish. Much lighter than its ABV suggests. Packs a smooth punch.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Incredibly tropical-forward profile: piña colada, pineapple, mango, passion fruit, and coconut balanced by a nice pine note. As with the nose, the flavor is a nicely balanced blend of citrus and pine with tea-like bitterness that emerges late in the finish. Clean, crisp, clear—everything West Coast, including the complementary alcohol that carries the hops even further. Remarkably well crafted.”

What the Brewers Say

“Mosaic, Citra, Krush, Simcoe in a drinkable DIPA. Tropical dankness.”
