Intense notes of pine and citrus hit the nose as soon as the cap is popped. As the name implies, the hop resins rip the tongue with bitterness; citrus, grassy, and peppery all at the same time, with just a hint of malt sweetness that lurks in the background, only to be smacked down by the bitterness. As an IPA lover, this is what I crave. Outstanding.
