I'm not sure where I got a can of this beer. It poured a hazy copper with white head that is leaving a nice lace. The scent had hints of ripe fruit. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with tropical fruit peel presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a good beer.

 

Pours a light amber with a full white head. The aroma is of biscuit and mango, with the mango aroma dropping off quickly. Light bodied, with a mild malt and hop presence, and a good finish of sweet mango. A very nice sessionable beer for warmer weather.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, best before 6/14/2017. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy golden amber/light orange color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky off white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big juicy mango, melon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, passion fruit, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, light pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/tropical/pine hops, mangoes, and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big juicy mango, melon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, passion fruit, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine, citrus rind, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of mango, melon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, passion fruit, lemon/orange rind, pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops, mangoes, and moderate bready malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately crisp, bready, grainy, sticky, resinous, and rindy balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is an awesome fruited session IPA! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops, mangoes, and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink; even with the increasingly bitter/resin/drying finish. Great juicy mango presence with balanced dank citrus/piney Citra/Centennial hops; and a nice malt backbone for the low ABV. A really enjoyable offering.
