Pours a clear golden body, with a small splotchy white head.
Fruit and floral hops in the aroma. Beautiful but simple.
Taste has all sorts of berries.. strawberry, black raspberry, bit of gooseberry. Some floral in the end.
Great drinking mouth feel.
An excellent beer.

16oz can pours out mostly clear with a chill haze, light gold with a large fluffy white head. This nose seems ripe with Mosaic but there is more going on here than just a single hop; sweet, pineapple, dank, lots of berries, red and blue and lots of strawberry; more of the same on the palate, minor bitterness, this is full of sweetness and fruity hop flavors…pineapple, nectarine, strawberries…well rounded malt backbone…really, really enjoyable West Coast IPA with low bitterness, more sweet than I expected.

Canned on 3/22. Tagged "Violetta" Pour is clean and clear, nice amber. Frothy foam gives up a noseful of fruit and a hint of pine. Taste is very nice, superb blended hops - Citra, Waimea, Talus and Mosaic. Smooth and very drinkable. It's a one-off so get one while you can.
