Sweet, malty, well balanced. Great DIPA. Buy a few 6 packs. 9/7/16 Bottle 5 stars

Way too malty, overpowers the hops. Terribly imbalanced.

1st ever beer in the new High Peak Series. Piney notes on the nose, heavy thick mouthfeel, long finish. not overly hopped but definitely a hop head beer. At 8.5% a dangerous ipa. Look forward to more in this series Had again now with the rebranding 2015 version. Cloudy orange in color with an incredibly frothy huge head that slowly dissipates leaving foamy lacing all down the glass. Tropical and resin like aromas. Medium in body smooth syrupy mouthfeel. Tropical fruit flavors at the forward followed by a resiny hop dry long finish. Overall very good!

Good beer but not my favorite IPA. The hoppiness isn't overwhelming (I actually like it overwhelming). It has a very apparent lemon flavor which at first tastes like I imagine lemon pledge tastes, but it mellows very quickly.

Strong/heavy, but a great dessert beer
