Just had this last night, and it was very good. Very balanced for a triple ipa and had a hop flavor and aroma that was very different than any hop I've ever tasted.

Aroma was of tropical fruits, alot like juicy fruit gum. Taste was of more tropical fruit and the bitterness quickly gave way to some sweet malt and then a little alcohol heat. Couldn't identify the fruit flavor but it was different and dangerously easy to drink.

How awesome would it be to run a Beer Borg Brewery. Hell, that even has a great ring to it! I'm down!

OK, but let's just take it slow to start off. Maybe a 10 barrel like this one to start off with.

A beer Borg brewery theory starts to get fantasizing wings through collective units individual interest ( which a shouldn't happen in a collective :p ) and takes off.

Will my circuits be fried if I join the fantasy because I have 1200 plus square feet of unused space in my housing allotment to use as theoretical location hmmmm.... what to do about the drought affect? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just picked up a 4 pack at a local store. They had 2 1/2 cases on the floor. If someone can't find it and would like to try one, PM me and let me know, I'll get one to you. Don't know I'd call it a triple, but a damn good IIPA.

So far, it's not at my normal places but I'm told it will be on the shelves by next weekend. I'll grab some soon.
If its Green Flash, it's good.
