16oz can served in a big snifter. Dated 06/01/2020 "THE FUTURE".
Pours a hazy amber brown with a smallish head, almost looks like a slushy. Slight carbonation. Smell is surprisingly mild, tropical, overripe mango kind of smell.
Taste is overripe mango, something a little grainy actually, a kick in the teeth of hop resin. Citrus flavor, almost an orange julius characteristic.
Mouthfeel is thick, chalky, resinous. Overall, it's pretty good.

Orange - amber pour, definite citrus comes up from the head, orange and tangerine - almost like those orange oil cleaners your mom had under the kitchen sink. Head fades quickly away and leaves a skim coat. Sip slowly to pick up flavors of melon, mango and more citrus. The stiff ABV is well hidden, so watch out. It feel a bit one-dimensional but is otherwise a well put together ale.

16oz can served in a nonic glass. Can is dated 06/01/20
Look- Hazy golden amber color. Good off-white head that recedes slowly to a thin cap of foam, solid lacing. Light carbonation streams visible.
Smell- Tropical fruit (papaya, mango and pineapple), citrus (tangerine and lemon), peach, dank, grainy malt, minimal pine with some other herbal/earthy hop notes.
Taste- Similar to the aroma, tropical fruit, citrus and peach skin, light berry, grainy malt, light pine, lingering bitter finish . Pretty well balanced.
Feel- Medium/light bodied, pretty dry and somewhat crisp. Medium carbonation on the tongue.
O- Good but not as interesting as some of their other offerings. Worth trying.

Poured from 16oz tall can into my BeerAdvocate teku. Canned 6/1/20, stamped "The Future" on the bottom.
Appearance: super hazy medium-golden body with a finger of creamy ivory foam atop. Looks great!
Smell: citrusy hop aroma with a fair amount of dankness present. There are some tropical notes underneath, notably pineapple. It's fairly sweet; not surprising given the style. I really rather like it.
Taste: citrusy for sure, but also with a little sharp piquancy. There's a light dose of smoother tropical fruits underneath, along with plenty of malt to back it up, and relatively low bitterness. I like it, but there's just that little sharp bit that prevents this from being "great".
Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and creaminess for the style.
Overall: this is a darn tasty hazy-type DIPA, but just a little less sharpness would make it a whole lot better.
