A: deep amber body, nice and clear; full head of ivory foam left lotsa messy lace down the glass
S: tropical and orchard fruits meet piney, resinous, woodsy hops
T: follows nose across the palate, with flavors of apricot, passion fruit, coconut, wood and pine resin
M: medium-light body, crisp, carbonation is ample, drier finish than start
O: a very nice, woodsy, almost barrel-aged character, featuring Simcoe hops (I think this is a single-hop beer, but don't quote me). IPA fans need to give it a try.

Another single can that has been sitting in the fridge for a while now.
As pictured...what is 'Caribbean-Style' I ask myself.
The beer poured slightly hazy, dark yellow orangish color, lots of carbonation bubble streams.
Big, white head with good retention and lots of lace string.
Lots of hoppy aroma, citrus and grapefruit.
Taste has a ton of grapefruit flavored hops, lots of floral and fruity bitterness.
I would say medium body, carbonation crispness on the tongue, bitter aftertaste.
A nicely done dry hopped beer, and in a can!
