Bell's Oracle - DIPA

Got my hands on a few bottles of Oracle.  I had really high hopes as HopSlam is one of my favorite beers on the planet.


It poured a nice amber color and had a small head on it but with good lacing.  This thing smells and tastes exactly like Pineapple juice.  Sweet, and fruity. When you take a sip you get slapped in the face by the bitterness of the huge hops in this.  Lots of sweetness from the crystal malt.  Thin mouthfeel which I like in  DIPA.   Strong, lingering bitterness on the end.   If you like mouth puckering pineapple juice then this is for you, but it's not for me, although it did grow on me towards the end as it warmed. 

B+
