Appearance: A murky dark orange colour with a big almost three finger off white head that had excellent retention and left lots of nice lacing.
Aroma: Strong fruitiness, ripe mango, pineapple, citrusy orange zest and rind, with hints of melon, pine and spice.
Taste: Light sweetness, mango, pineapple, melon, followed by citrusy orange rind and peel, hints of honey sweetness and nice bitterness on the finish.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Nice easy drinking DIPA with lots of fruit and not a hint of booze.
