picked up a can locally. canned date october 2nd (month and a half)...enjoyed from a CCB humidor series tulip.
a - brew poured a soft transparent orange yellow with a massive head that filled the remainder of the glass. the head hung out forever, but as it dissolved, milkshake like chunks coated the sides of the glass. great visible carbonation could be seen when held to the light.
s - spot on. dank sweaty tropical hops. caribbean indeed.
t - once again, fairly spot on. dank sweaty tropical hops...not as dank as the nose suggests, but still fairly pungent. sweet. very mango
m - soft carbonation, subtle bitterness on the finish. watery body with dankness to give it some depth.
o - overall, really glad to see ccb back in the local shops. what a nice treat to go along with jai alai...very tropical and tasty. will definitely be picking up more of this.

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!
