I have some of the worst luck with South County B.C. CANs in that they have a proven propensity to explode on me! The recent heat wave was not doing them any favors (among others) & so I beCAN a system of triage to get as many CANcerns into the reefer to chill, pooching or not.

From the CAN: "Experiment*Learn*Repeat"; "Brewing Research Series"; "Best Kept Cold"; "Drink Fresh Do Not Age"; "Exploring the Possibilities"; "Learn With Us".

The Crack! was a little problematic due to pooching of the lid, but the seam had held, so it just took some coaxing to burst the vent. I beCAN a slow, gentle Glug, but it was still foaming mightily as I backed off, then started again. I finally ended up with just over two fingers of dense, foamy, rocky, tawny head with good retention that left nice lacing in its wake. Color was a slightly-hazy Yellow-Gold (SRM = 4 - 5). Nose was really up my hophead alley in that the Centennial was very cool & minty, but Cascade imparts both grapefruit & pine esters. Mmm. My mouth was watering on full blast, I CAN assure you. Mouthfeel was medium. If this was a S.M.A.S.H. (single malt & single hop) beer, I CANgratulate them on having the rare common sense to let the hops shine & the malt be a bit player. The mélange as grapefruit & pine battled it out for supremacy was stunning! Ooh, now grapefruit! Ooh, now pine! Ooh, now a little of both! 8=O This was really wonderful. Yeah, it may not have precisely been an APA, so I'll have to tone down my rating numbers acCANdingly, but I would hope that you are paying attention to my verbiage & not my numerology. Finish was dry, but restrained. I did not feel any need to reach for water, as with some overly hopped beers. Very nicely done.

Really unique and interesting....totally different feel than your average IPA. I prefer the hop bombs but this was pretty good. Try it if you can find it.
