Poured from a can(12pk) to a glass. I will say Denver Beer Co is not my favorite brewery(outside of the peanut butter graham cracker porter), so take it with a grain of salt
L: looks a nice golden orange color. Thick 2 inch head with pretty good lacing.
S: smell is really nice. A good blend of coconut sweetness up front with tropical fruit in the back
T: the coconut hits first and masks the fruit flavor of the hops coming through in the back but they still come through nicely.
F: nice mouth feel with flavors that evolve on your pallet.
O: this beer got better as I tried it and I would reach for another. If your looking for a summer IPA with slight sweetness from coconut, this is a goo's choice. At 6.6%, idk that I'd play beer pong with it, but I'd for sure grab two or three while I'm grilling this summer

I've had a few so I'm rating this as such for now, I do get a hint of coconut which is excellent already. I bought a six pack of this so I'm looking forward to tasting when im not toasted.
UPDATE: lowkey still toasted but I still get that underlying coconut kick at the finish, as an ipa this is solid and I like incredible pedal also but that hint of coconut as branded is what I wanted to find. DBCO is getting better to me.
This is my favorite offering from them so far.

A thanks to the creator of the canquest, woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a golden/orange color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of tropical fruits. Taste is pine, light pineapple and passion fruit, hints of coconut. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

Pours a hazy gold with a white head.
Nose is mango, tangerine, coconut, and a hint of ethanol.
Taste is pineapple, mango, tangerine, and a hint of coconut. Sweet, but not too sweet. Slightly bitter. Decent balance. A bit of a soda-like flavor.
Mouthfeel is mid-bodied and a little chewy. Moderate carbonation. Slightly sticky. Alcohol is noticeable is you look for it.
Overall, very pleasant. Could easily enjoy a 6-pack.

On draught at Frontier Brewing and Taproom.
Pours a pale gold with a quickly disappearing head of foam, very little lacing.
Piney hops, light coconut, some dankness in the nose.
Taste is heavy on the pine, light on the coconut, dankness coming from tropical fruit hints. Good but a rough to my palate.

Copper colored with an inch of soapy and frothy off white to lightly tan head. The aroma is of coconut, lemon, and a whiff of pine. The coconut and pine are somewhat at odds with each other. I would describe the coconut as a suntan lotion flavor, but it's really only in the front of the palate and then the pine takes over. It seems a bit dense for the style.

Poured from a 12oz can with a canned on date of 6/13/18; into a pint glass.
Appearance- a faintly oily, dark gold with some rising bubbles that aid a thin, white head; some scattered lacing.
Smell - toasted coconut, sun tan lotion, earthy hops and pine tree; no doubt smells like Summer!
Taste - although there is a bit of a sun tan lotion-like flavor profile, I still dig the delicious semi sweet coconut paired with mango and pineapple; a hoppy coconut snow cone!
Feel - not too sweet, the right amount of bitterness, and easy drinking!
Overall - I’m a fan of coconut, so this one scores with me; even though the 6.6% is well hidden, it would be nice if this was under 6%, as I could see myself enjoying a few of these on a hot summer beach or pool day!
