Huge aroma of pineapple, peach and citrus. Light sunset orange color. Taste of pine, citrus and a good amount of an herbal pine finish. Just the right amount of bitterness

One of the great fresh IPA's on the planet.
If they could teleport this stuff, I would gave it 5 stars. Can't really say you've had a great IPA unless you've had a PTE..

It's a great IPA please don't get me wrong but there are better and more complex ones out there. Super rare though and has some fame associated with it so you might a well try it.

It was incredibly smooth for an imperial. A salty note initially to overpower that traditional hop smack but overall fantastic! Brewmasters at Russian know what the f they are doing!!! There is a reason why this is the most sought after craft in the game!!! An absolute must try

Nice amber color and very smooth taste, however just s tad to hoppy for my liking. Slightly overrated in my opinion especially at $10 a bottle.
