Hop Juice Double IPA
Picked up in San Diego. This is a very unique DIPA. It has all of the hop bitterness I crave, but not a lot of floral notes. Not even so much grapefruit, but a lot of grapefruit rind taste. I'm enjoying it, but it's not typical for the DIPA style. There's something I can't quite put my finger on, sort of a licorice note set against the hops that seems odd, but strangely good. I would revisit it to give it another try if it was available in my area, but wouldn't seek it out for another journey in my checked luggage.
