Dank, pungent, earthy, herbal aroma; not at all what I was expecting. Slightly musty. Unsurprisingly tart on the palate, with the hops washing over after. Over and over, waves of guava- and kumquat-like overripe fruit wash over the palate. I can only imagine this strange earthy overripe quality is due to the acerola. It complements the hops quite well, though.
It may be titled a milkshake IPA, but it's almost more of a fruited sour IPA, although the sourness is muted. It's creative and quite good; much better than I expected. Lively, with a nice sting up front; fairly wet finish. Low bitterness.
