Pours beautiful coppery amber with a thick and fluffy ivory head. Aroma rises up to greet you with evergreen hops, while Mandarin orange and subtle malty notes make their appearance as you close in. Boldly hoppy flavor has hay, sour citrus, and malty undertones to round out a very satisfying taste. Body is firm, though fizz is lacking. Cue "Rebel Rouser" and make sure your X-Wing is fully fueled, then enjoy! (But please don’t drink and fly!)

Orange coloured pour with a big fluffy white head that retains and laces well. The aroma is sweet and malty, pine and flowery. Sweet and bitter flavours are good but seem to be separate. Sweet caramel malt, toffee. Fruity, floral and thick resinous pine. Mouthfeel is medium sticky oilslick. Fruit flys like it too.

Clear orange/ yellow body, the head is big and frothy and leaves some decent lace. Aromas of pine, citrus and malts. Flavor is malty, with a nice grapefruit bite, some faint tropical fruit notes here and there. Overall its decent, a bit too malty for a DIPA in my opinion, but worth a try.

I wasn't a big fan of the balance of this at first, but growing on me a bit with each sample. Finding the colder the better, as it warms up you will notice this more as the flavors blend. Has a hazy light orange appearance. Medium citrus and pine. Good bitter on the finish. Somewhat lighter body for the style, as at only 8.4% it's lighter on some ingredients. Borderline macro beer. In the end, it's a quality affordable/economy DIPA.

An amber colored beer with a big frothy textured off white head rising above. There's great hang time on the head. A thick persistent cap and creamy ringlet are left. There's a citric nose and some light mango sweetness. The acidic bitterness dominates in the tasting but the sweetness of bready malt and sweet tropical fruit holds it's own. There's a slickness on the tongue.
