First sip is very similar to other DIPAs in that it is a more sedate hops than you'd find in a normal IPA, but that makes the whole thing a lot more approachable. The pine is a lot more forward than I would have expected, but the malt is doing its job admirably, beating down the bitterness wave to allow the citrus and pine to hang out without overpowering anyone.
Tip-in is mild carbonation burn with grapefruit and lemon on top of the pine, but the pine isn't forward. The middle is a slightly higher malt that is... kind of bland, but that leaves more room for the hops to continue their dance of flavor. The finish is a slow wave of bitterness with an increase in pine action, but that dies down pretty quickly and leaves just a bit of bitterness on the tongue.
Bottom Line: It's a solid DIPA, and I'd have another, for that's sure.
