agentPLINY is drinking an Alpha Hop Society 2022: West Coast Double IPA by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. at Untappd at Home
When I first saw the hop bill on this one, I said "where is the innovation?" But this was wrong. Every can was different & provided a unique experience. Looking forward to the other hoppy brews

agentPLINY is drinking an Eleventh Anniversary IPA by Smog City Brewing Co. at Untappd at Home
Aromas of gooseberry, lime zest w/light notes of diesel, lychee & papaya skin. I'd swear they used Nelson (but they didn't). Slight sharp flavors of grapefruit, mango skin, lychee & white grape skins. Light astringency on the finish

Light aromas of grapefruit & lime zest w/hints of gooseberry & white grape. Intermittent coconut aroma & flavor. Smooth grapefruit & light-skinned stone fruit flavors w/ a grape-like astringency on the finish. Decent, but feels a bit forced
