Undated (my pet peeve, particularly for IPAs) into pint glass. Pours a hazy light amber with a modest white head. Initial impression is - yep, citrus. Orange, a touch of grapefruit, and a light touch of pilsner malt. Mouthfeel and carbonation are medium and refreshing. Finish is sweet and light. OK but not something I would seek out.

Pours from a can a glowing tan orange. Chill hazed, but not opaque.
Lives up to its name and then some with a tangerine sweet citrusy note on the nose and a slightly sweetish mandarin finish. Something of a bicarbonate character on the end of this, like what you might find after drinking some flavored sparking water, that I just can't otherwise place.

Poured from a 16oz can into a Delirium Noel glass. Best before 3 July 2019.

Hazy yellow with light head and heavy lacing.
Grapefruit rind and something delicate and floral (yeast? Mandarina?).
Clean, hoppy-bitter, and tart with a sweet, dry finish. Fruitiness is subdued but lurks about.
Very dry, bracing, and crisp. Salivatory and moreish. Super nice.
Really exciting IPA from one of my old favorites.
