Pizza Port Kook Double IPA
Exuberant tropical fruit aroma leads to juicy grapefruit, pineapple and citrus flavors. This beer is a prime example of a San Diego IPA with pale straw color, restrained malt character, a bone dry finish, and loads of hops from first wort to dry hop. Hops: Chinook dominant, with supporting roles played by Amarillo, El Dorado, CTZ & Hull Melon.

Gold pour, small offwhite head. Melon, orange, caramel... sweet, fruity, tasty. Medium bodied.
Citrusy guava pineapple aroma with light pine and bready malts.
Pours a golden amber color with dense white head
Strong piney and citrus peel hop flavor with sweet bready malts
Medium heavy body with medium co2, lingering sticky bitter sweet finish.
Decent DIPA. A bit cloying, but drinkable. Definitely a sipper
Can. Just unclear deep gold with a fading white head. Aroma of grapefruit, grass, pineapple (+ a little mango), pine. Light bread is underneath. Barely medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Bread and a touch of biscuit - not fancy but enough. And and bland sweetness it might impart is countered by a dry and fairly bitter finish. The citrus and tropical fruit notes swoop towards resin there too. Alarmingly drinkable, tasty, but not terribly interesting.

16 oz can from bottlecraft. Cat piss and soft melon with hop resin right in your face. A little malty than typical beers of this style. Really fantastic.
Yellow brew with a white head. Tropical and light pine, slight woodsy note. Lively. Bitter bite throughout. Medium bodied. Heck yes.
Bottle @ Hemet, CA trip to visit family always find new micros to rate and taste.
Sampled from tap at FDDB 2018. Hazy, golden amber with a medium large, foamy, stable, off-white head. Sweetish, fruity-resiny and slightly grassy aroma of mango, orange jam, papaya and some pine. Quite sweet, malty, rather resiny and moderately fruity taste of lots of pine, mango, papaya and orange jam, followed by a medium long, rather bitter, resiny and a bit boozy finish. Medium to full body, creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very nice, just a tad too boozy.
Shared by a friend. Clear gold pour with a thick white head. Aroma of malt, tropical fruit and pine. Malty flavor with a strange date-like character before a piney hop finish.
Piney, cheesy & prickelnd lemondry👍Pint Dose vom famosen STERKE in Amsterdam.
473ml can. Clear golden with a long lasting white head. Lots of resin, pine, tropical fruit on the nose. Taste is resinous, piney, pineapple, tropical fruit, malts, bitter finish. medium body, soft carbonation. Great classic west coast DIPA.

16 oz can poured, listed at 8.5%. Canned 10/11/2017. A clean and clear golden orange pour. Plenty of foam head that lasts. Pineapple like tropical aroma, with plenty of cool, almost minty hops. Refreshing taste to this. Juicy, but not thick. Flavorful cool melon hops, juice lingering finish. Easy drinking imperial. Delicious.
Canette achetée à La Mise En Bière - De couleur orangée trouble avec une belle mousse blanche crémeuse qui tient longtemps - Au nez énormément de résine, pin, agrumes, mangue, papaye, et le malt se fait un peu de placé en fin de nez - En bouche la résine vous explose en bouche avec une énorme amertume incroyable, pin, pamplemousse, papaye mangue, et une bonne dose de céréale en fin de bouche - Corp moyen/full, carbonation pétillante, amertume forte, résineuse et amère, final résineux amère et fruité - une monstrueuse dipa à l'américaine super amère et super houblonnée
Can@home, from Beer Republic. Strong, still refreshing nuances of sweetish malts (pilsner like), fresh citrus and some mango, lot of hops. Alcohol comes trough a bit and only a thought of malts detected. Balanced. Medium taste spectrum and long hoppy aftertaste with sweetish fruits like citrus. Medium/light body with medium carbonation. Overall, kinda light but good, refreshing implementation of pils and DIPA properties.
Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Medium thick, tightly 'papery' lacing, off-white, stable head, opening middle but retaining as a pattern of dotty 'islands'; lightly hazy, warm and pure golden blonde colour, yellowish with ochre tinge. Aroma of raw garlic, a lot of yellow grapefruit, old cheese, cumin seed, lemon rind, lime juice, gin, dried out white bread, apple peel, pine resin, olive oil, white pepper. Fruity, crisp and clean onset, green banana, unripe pineapple, starfruit, sweetish with a sourish edge, softish carbo. Smooth, oily mouthfeel, feeling lighter than expected from a near-9% ABV beer really; 'white' bready maltiness, bit understated in the 'biscuit' department; long, spicy hop bitter finish as is to be expected, garlic-ish, very grapefruity, white pepper, 'green' citrus peel, followed by warming, gin-like alcohol which, in all, remains perfectly in place. Exemplary as expected, but could perhaps do with a tad more caramelized maltiness?
Light in color. Medium head. Slight malt with big hops. Slight cirtrus and pine. Crisp and clean on the finish, though slightly bitter and rubbery at the start. An extremely drinkable double.
Can from Beer Republic, at 8.5%, canned on 06/28/17 so 4.5 months old now, 16 oz sample. Clear golden color, short frothy head. Aroma of grassy and flowery hop, together with some sweet candy maltiness. Same goes for flavor, grassy bitterness, sweet candy. Tickling bitterness on the tongue. Pretty heavy still, even though the malt is quite clean and not caramel heavy, like most Dutch brewers would do.
0,473l can from Beergium. Pours light golden color with medium head. Aroma of grapefruit, citrus, mango, pine, malts, hops. Taste is properly backed up by the malts, even though the beer goes fruitiness first. Slightly less bitter than average DIPA, medium body, dry aftertaste
Can at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma is nicely fruity and citrussy with orange, tangerine, biscuity malt, light pine, soft grapefruit, and bitter fruit peel. Flavour is mildly sweet with a firm bitterness in the finish. Above medium body. Nicely fruity IIPA, good stuff.
citrus, earthy, golden, clear, minimal head, light sweetness, very bitter, medium to full body, oily feel, average carbonation, long finish,
Hazy/turbid yellow/golden beer with a slight/medium off-white head. Medium/heavy aroma with a lot of orange, tropical fruit and citrus. Taste is medium sweet and slightly bitter and dry; has some dry bread at the end as well.
Color amarillo oscuro, ligeramente turbio, con capa de espuma blanca de dos dedos de grosor (buena retención). Carbonatación suave. Textura oleosa. Aroma a cítricos, cereal, resina, pino, hierbas. En boca hay cítricos con base de cereal presente, con mucho pino, ligeros toques herbales y final resinoso de amargor suave que continúa mínimamente en regusto. Postgusto a pino. Como si fuera un hermano mayor de la Swami's IPA.
Fairly hazy golden and raw honey coloured body with a nice golden glow and a dash of apricot and peach coloured tints along with a thick, three centimetre tal off-white head. Aroma of bright grassy and citrusey hops along with some biscuity malt backbones, coupled with a larger yeast smell than expected and the alcohol you expect. Medium-bodied; Assertive dry and very herbal flavours with a big dose of grapefruit and citrus bitterness and hop flavours coupled with some more astringent notes that have a lot of pungency and ending with some alcohol warmth throughout. Aftertaste shows the bitterness front and centre with a good malt backbone and balance and ending with a dry and slightly sweet flavour of the apricots and peaches along with a dash of floral and pure resinous hops coming through at the very tail end. Overall, a pretty well-balanced Imperial IPA with a nice complexity towards the end and a lot of dry, citrusey and resinous flavours and a good bit of alcohol as well. Nice to try, and even though this would have been a VERY enjoyable beer on the island, this was nice to literally bring it around the world and have it at home! I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from the Turnpike Shell Gas Station (which sadly I discovered on the way to the airport) in Hagatna, Tamunig, Guam [USA] and brought literally around the world back to home in Washington and sampled on 28-October-2017.
Pours light orange with small head. Aroma: citrus fruit and oranges. Taste: nicely dank with citrus and a hoppy palate.
Very nice IIPA, beautiful aroma and senses tingling taste, more bitter than most US IIPAs I've tasted, but it's still full of finesse, mainly a flowery feel to it with loads of good hops, I taste the cascades and some other ones. It's a sure shot this one.
hazy golden colour, around one inch dense off-white head; aroma of pine resin, mango, grapefruit, tropical fruits and grassy notes, as well as some alcohol; taste of intensive hoppy bitterness and malty-syrupy sweetness with pine, tropical fruits and dill; good one
Aroma is lemon curd, meringue, grapefruit, pine tar.
Grapefruit, yeast, pine, pine and pine.
Aroma of coniferous forrest and herbs. Taste is herbal, bitter, dry, with bitter aftertaste. Nice head.
