A West Coast style IPA full of citrus-like and tropical fruit like hop flavor and aroma with an assertive yet smooth bitter finish....malt, take a back seat please

Slight fluffy lush bone white colored froth... Solid retention given its limited size... Color is a chill hazed pale golden yellow... The nose is a bit subdued but highlighted by an assertive hop presence that is equal parts earthy, piney and citrusy... Palate is really pleasant and completely as expected... The hop presence intensifies a bit from the start to the finish of the sip... Feel is sturdy and medium bodied with some sharp spry carbonation... Rock solid west coast IPA (I think)... I can recommend...

Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass. Canned Oct 25th 2022.
Pale amber with a real nice orange body color. Mostly clear with real big amounts of lively fine champange like carbonation. Head is off white, a little soapy but still with fine bubbles and decent retention. Manages to snap dissolve quickly but does make a good presence and hangs around and clings excellently.
Very unique aroma. Hard to describe this hop forward brew. Tea floral perhaps, almost with a real wonderful spicy green herb note kind of like sweet oregano or something. There's a real unique fruit quality in the background also, kind of passion fruit sensing too. Excellent stuff.
Palate is superb. Light bodied and super easy drinking mouthfeel but highly supportive and bursting with flavor. Feels like a session brew but has way more power. A rich mid palate of delicious hops that taste like orange pekoe tea, and light tangerine herbs. Excellent hop bitterness on the finish with lingering pine and candied faint orange in the background mixed in. Pine and candied gumdrop in the finish, almost like an amped twizzler or something.
Real unique beer, and glad to have finally tried this classic. It is fantastic. I didn't drink this, I practically inhaled it.

Appearance - Pours a beautiful clear orange with visible carbonation. An inch head that is off white & looks like a fluffy pillow.
Aroma and taste - A beautiful mixture of citrus fruits (i.e., grapefruit) and floral, slight resin hop flavors.
Mouthfeel - Easy drinking, smooth, perfect amount of bitterness, medium body. Outstanding!
Overall - One word, AWESOME!!
