Tobin’s Review 3 out of 5
Golden Road’s Ride On Tropical IPA has a light honeysuckle hue with a fast-dissipating medium white head. The head literally disappeared in record speed. The beer has light mossy fur hop aromas, which are sweet on the nose. The beer is smooth with a hint of fruit. I pick up notes of lime and apricot (I guess this was actually the passionfruit, but it tasted like apricot to me). It’s really fruity, not very dry and has dried sweet fruit flavors.

Technomancer Hazy Galaxy DIPA has a dark honey hue with a small frothy creamy head. There isn’t much of an aroma as I really only pick-up faint hops on the nose. The first sip is soft and light with a little bitterness. Overall, this is a smooth beer. I am usually not a big fan of DIPA’s, but this is a superbly crafted beer.

Gigazapper DIPA has a copper hue with a nice off-white compact head and sweet hop citrus aromas. The beer is super soft, but immediately turns dry. The hops and grains in this beer are well-balanced and it is a nicely constructed beer. If you like DIPAs this is the bomb, as it’s a solid beer…. just not my gig though.

Stone Scorpion Bowl IPA has a copper hue with a compact off-white head. The beer doesn’t have much of an aroma as I really only pick up a light grainy nose. Overall the beer is smooth with a bit of caramel that turns slightly bitter with a hops finish. This is a good beer, given the fact that it is high in alcohol.
