Canned on: ?????
A - Opaque medium orange gold color with lots of floaties and dense white creamy lacing.
S - Lemon / lime and citrus that's acidic and intense.
T - Puckering lemon & lime are intense and dominate from start to finish with lingering acidic citrus.
M - Sucks the spit out of your mouth and leaves the top of the tongue salivating.
O - Too over the top and qualifies more as a Sour or a citric puckering mess.

Had a 5oz taste of this at Fegley's on 01JUN23. Hit the spot, so I snagged a 32oz crowler to go, for $10.50. Quaffed the contents on 02JUN23, at camp at the WWII Weekend in Reading PA.
Poured a slightly hazy, muted, medium golden/yellow color. Had steady carbo, and creamy, short, fine white head. Topping ebbed to a thin layer, mostly at the edges, with OK lacing. Aroma was heavy on the lime, with some lemon-peel and assorted other citrus action. Body was medium, with a decent feel overall.
Taste also emphasized the lime aspect, plus lemon, orange-peel, and a slight hint of rum. It was almost like a tropical drink you'd have in Jamaica! Reminded me a bit of Founders Barrel Runner, too. I liked it!! Prosit!

Purchased at Sellersville Beverage, Sellersville, PA. $18/4pk (16oz cans)
Pours a hazy, semi-opaque orange color. Very little head on the initial pour.
Aromas of sweet fruits on the initial smell.
A different taste for sure. It has a definite IPA backbone but it has a sour-like lemon, grapefruit taste that are the predominate flavors. The 11.5% ABV is not noticeable and this makes this a pretty dangerous brew since it’s so easy drinking. Leaves a slightly bitter aftertaste after each sip.
Medium consistency. Low carbonation.
I really wanted to like this as much as I do Hop’solutely which I consider an excellent Triple IPA. However, the taste, although not off-putting, isn’t quite what I expected. It’s a bit too sour and fruit-like for my liking. This is a one and done purchase whereas I’ve purchased Hop’solutely numerous times and will continue to do so.

3x ipa fermented with lemons, limes, & passionfruit.
A: Dark orange coloring with a good steady flow of effervesce. Frothy white head is one inch has a good retention. Minimal lace appeal. Standard presentation.
S: Limes and passionfruit really come out on the opening nose. Tropical pineapple with bright lemon flair. Good strength.
T: Lots of fresh lime and passion fruit juice like flavor. Pineapple tartness quickly turns to lemon juice and lightly sour orange. A finish of sour lemon lemon-orange juice.
M: Tons of dancing carbonation texture on the tongue with a frothy and active appeal.
O: Overall a 3x hopped, sour alcohol and hop juice like flair. Tastes overall like a hopshot, no flowery presence. Tastes like a sour tropical mixed drink, hence the hurricane portion in the name. Not my ideal flavor or profile, but fits the profile per style regardless. wow had no idea it was 11.5% when consumed. tastes a like a fruit drink no more 6-7%
