Big & Bold, this IPA provides a flavor profile of earthy hop bitterness and a strong tangerine/citrus aroma. Seven hop addition in the boil from 6 different hop varieties, followed by a 3 day dry-hop.

Unique can info: RINSERS ENGAGE CANNED ON (1?)2/12/17
Clear amber body; thin yet sticky, whitish head. Very faint spicy aroma and light cereal grains. Malty body with a sharp, crisp hop bitterness. Heavy body; rather coarse on the palate; warm with a slight alcohol character; dry finish.
Hoppy bitterness and decent malt sweetness and balance. Nothing outstanding yet good enough overall.

12 oz. Can
Pours a pretty nice yellowish/orange color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy/foamy white head, which leaves some sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, kinda malty, with some citrus. The taste is hoppy, malty, citrus/pine. Medium body. Overall, a pretty tasty brew.

Bought a 6pk cans in Denver. No dates indicated...
Pours a dk.gold, hazy. Head is REAL big and creamy.
Given the great head, it is weird that the beer appears and tastes flat. Very little bubble action in the glass, no carbonation on the tongue.
Nice hop aromas and resiny flavors. Not astringent, bitterness is clean. Excellent lacing on the glass.
For my tastes, 8% abv is great, even though that is somewhat light for DIPA style. Booze doesn't dominate.
Main real complaint is the inadequate carbonation.

12oz can. Poured out a clear, golden amber color with a small, tan head of foam. It smelled of toasted caramel, toffee, citrus and pine. Tasted of pine, citrus and sweet caramel with a mild bitterness.

Picked this up at total beverage because I had not tried it yet. Drinking from the can the aroma is pine needle and malt. Not a bad taste but just ok for a DIPA. Drinking good for the 8% abv but would not buy again.

Got a pint at the brewery and picked up a four pack of cans to bring home and share in San Diego. Pretty tasty. West coast IPA style. Not super hoppy. Was sweeter than I was expecting. Not the best IPA I've had but I definitely liked it and will stop in for more next time I'm in Lone Tree.
