The Aleuminati-the not so secret society of better beer drinkers

Style; glass: DIPA; Tulip
22 fl oz x 8% ABV = 176 / 60 = 2.93 beers * 150 C = 439.5 calories (est.)
Purchased at: Super Saver Pennington, NJ for $4.49

Aroma: hay, orange peel, pineapple, pine trees, salt.

Visuals: intriguing packaging, looks like top shelf whiskey, deep amber, brilliantly clear, off white head, intricate thin lace.

Taste: well balanced, light sweetness throughout, citrus rind tones continuously present, strength balanced with sensibility.

Palate: dry, towel, long bitter finish with sweetness lying underneath.

Overall: A very well balanced DIPA. A definite repeat. A sure favorite. At $5 a bomber, an amazing value.

Rating: 0/5 stars

It definitely tweaks the typical DIPA signature. It's a bit more tropical. A little mango on top of the pineapple, perhaps? ;)

When I first saw your review....I thought "pineapple?!? what the..?" After that when I drank my next Hop Stoopid....sure enough you are right!! This is one of my favorites right now! Cheers!
