Pours cloudy with many floaties from a twelve ounce bottle. Big off-white foam that thickens as it recedes nicely. Thick, sticky lacing line the walls of the glass throughout. Aroma is centered on citrus hops: mainly of the grapefruit variety. Caramel and bread malts form the backbone. Alcohol is there too. Taste follows the nose perfectly. Sweetness delivered and used to help balance the large amount of bittering hops. Grapefruit is in the taste and in the finish with a bitter bite that is rough but not tough. Body is medium with a almost creamy quality that seems to come from the hops. Medium carbonation while the drink dries the palate. Wow! Great tip from the beer store while in Florida on this beer. I was hesitant at first but can see why the recommendation. Now why didn't I grab more than one bottle? Enjoy!
