Appearance - 4.0
Foamy white head that leaves heavy lacing around the glass. Amber colour leaning on the yellow side with a nice amount of carbonation bubbling up.
Aroma - 4.0
Very citrus strong aroma like a fresh cut orange peel with a hint of caramel.
Mouthfeel - 4.5
Nice light to medium mouth feel with some carbonation, not ot little, not to much.
Taste - 3.5
A bit of citrus orange up front, followed by a pine needle like hoppy bitterness that lingers with an essence of ctirus.
Overall - 3.5
Can't tell the extra alcohol is there. Pretty hoppy but not to over powering.

Pours 1 finger of sticky white head. It has a good retention and leaves some nice lacing. It's pretty clear and amber in color.
Aroma - 4.0
A pretty strong citrusy hops nose. There are also background notes of sweet caramelized malts.
Mouthfeel - 4.0
A medium-bodied beer, moderately carbonated with a fairly smooth feel to it.
Taste - 4.0
A great mix of sweetness and several varieties of hops. The citrus flavors hit first, lots of orange and lemon. There is a nice caramel malt towards the center followed by some piny hops and a grapefruit finish with some added sweetness.
Overall - 4.0
This is a pretty well balanced DIPA. It doesn't destroy your palette and balances well. It's very drinkable despite the higher alcohol content.
