REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Poured hazy burnt orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered; sediment suspended in the beer and at the bottom of the glass. White head and good lacing. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Slight dank/resiny malty, with lemony juicy tropical guava, pineapple, and passion fruit. 4.5/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose, dank/malty with all the complementing tropical lemon, guava, pineapple, and passion fruit noted above. A POG-like aura on the aftertaste. Simply delicious. 4.75/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, good carbonation. Very juicy on the tongue, like a New England-style IPA. No dry tongue detected. 4.75/5

Overall (20%): An outstanding to world-class IPA. I'm a mega fan of this beer. Woohoo! has the juice-bomb flavor and slight dankness that I crave, and still drinks fairly smooth for an 8.5% beer. I would put this up against any other 3 Magnets beer they have, and up against most others that I've drank. Very delicious. Only real hesitation I see is the price, but it was worth spending the money for this review. 4.5/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.625/5
