Potent botanical flavors cut and compliment a weighty white pepper hop leaf burn in this pretty double IPA from British Columbia. More floral than citrusy on the nose than the bulk of its west coast American brethren, this gets extra points from my taste buds for standing a little askew of the crowd without veering off into odd and quizzical 'extreme IPA' territory. On the close it's as bitter and piledrivingly bossy as you'd expect and desire from an honest to God DIPA.
