Pours from the can a hazy orange brown with about an inch of white head and clingy lace.
Grapefruit, oranges and malt on the nose - muted, but a decent balance between citrussy hops and sweet malts.
Bitter citrus for the sake of being bitter - just a hopslap. Tart too, with some zest of lemon. Given the nose, not surprisingly malty, but overly so for an IPA.
Dry, leaving the mouth to figure out what to do with the remaining hoppiness.
Underwhelming - just not well-balanced or enjoyable. It seems like the right components are within reach, but none used appropriately.

It’s a crappy IPA, but I used to drink it when I lived in Delhi New York. It’s a local option in rural NY that is better than a macro beer, and it is quite inexpensive.

This is not an IPA - flat hops. Very little floral notes. Tastes like a better carbonated British Ale. Ok - with a hint of grapefruit.
I pass. Too many great competitors in the market.
