16 oz can, packaged on 07/12/21, poured into a pint glass.
A: Hazy grapefruit color with a sudsy one-finger off-white head with good retention.
S: Sweet cherry, some pineapple/orange. Fruit punch, basically.
T: Pineapple comes through more than the nose. Some mild floral hop bitterness but not enough to counter the cloying sweetness of the overripe fruits.
F: Medium-full bodied, somewhat creamy.
With a little tweaking like less sweet fruit, a little more balancing hop bitterness, maybe a little more carbonation this could be a refreshing summer crusher.

Appearance - The beer poured a cloudy pink color with a white head.
Smell - The beer smelled like bitter fruit punch. It was not pleasant.
Taste - If an IPA wanted to capture the taste of rotten fruit, this would be the starting point. The profile was not fruity or sweet. It was like rotten cherries were pureed into an IPA.
Mouthfeel - The beer was quite thick and full bodied.
Overall - Pipeworks should probably not make this again.

16oz can. Poured a hazy, pinkish-orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It smelled very fruity with toasted caramel and floral notes. Lots of cherry and pineapple taste with toasted caramel and subtle bitterness.

Canned 4/7/20; drank 4/25/20 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque pink/orange appearance.
An even pour yielded a nice off-white head; frothy lace.
Fruit punch, cane sugar & dry grass notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Fruit punch & dry grass flavors.
A bit on the nose, perhaps, but very pleasant. I'd have another.

Murky peach pour with two fingers of beigy white foam. The hawaiian punch fruits are present in a more zesty way with the fresh hops, slight flowers too. Taste has the fruit as more juicy and somewhat sweeter, pineapple stands out in particular, with a drier hop finish. Feel is juicy and frothy simultaneous, would like more juice to be honest, with hop bitters gently cascading down on the palate by the finish. Refreshing
