More like a triple IPA. First taste is whoa! Then you start to pick up some other tastes. Definitely a sipping beer. One is plenty.

Floral, piney, smooth, some lingering hop bitterness...overall a good beer, but I think its rarity/limited availability adds to the mystique...I wouldn't put this in the top 50, probably not in the top 100, but it is still a highly drinkable beer for its 8% abv and an overall really good beer

Definitely one of the best, but I felt a bit let down - because of the hype.

Nice hoppy aroma that smells like it's going to have a kick but it's pleasantly smooth and citrusy.
It actually tastes peachy to me and almost doesn't taste like an IPA at all.
It's super easy to drink but does have a bitter chalky after taste.
