Brewed with oats, lactose sugar, and wheat flour. Conditioned atop Madagascar vanilla beans and a stupid amount of luscious passion fruit purée. Hopped intensely with Mosaic and Citra. Dreamt up with our main daimies at @omnipolloshatt.

I tried this chilled from the can in a glass.
the color is golden with thick haze and off white head with small bead and lace clings well. The smell is all fruit -tropical sweet and tangy with characteristic passionfruit aroma. The feel is tangy fruity and tropical with a slight sweetness in the feel but not quite sugary sort of thick with a tangy semidry finish.
The flavor is like nectar -very fruity yet somewhat sweet and sour with some tropical tastes of passionfruit with the yeast and slight sweetness of the sugar hops are present but only provide a supporting bitterness and don't flavor as much as keep it from being cloying. This is one of the best'fruit IPA's' I have tried even if it is a milkshake IPA

Pours a wonderful yellow, milky haze. The smell is dominated by passionfruit and citrus. The taste is heavily passionfruit and is accompanied by a dominant smooth, milky mouthfeel. I wish I had more... This is a near perfect beer.

Been ISO any kind of tired hands milkshake variant for a while now, finally was able to grab this. 16oz can poured into snifter.
Look is an incredibly murky straw yellow. Looks just like orange juice, maybe a little lighter. Hazy as can get, no light coming through this one.
Smell is extremely fruity, musky, and milky. I'm getting plenty of melon, smells like cantaloupe and lemon pie. Butterscotch and vanilla notes are coming through as well. Milky sweetness is coming through, I guess this is the smell of lactose? I have no idea what this musty smell is, but very intriguing.
Taste is extremely sweet notes of melons, pinneapple, vanilla, and graham cracker up front. In the back end, it tastes like a pastry or a strawberry Danish filling. Almost getting some cheesecake in there as well. Sweet buttery malt backbone, almost no hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel is just as expected. Extremely milky, creamy and velvety.
Fantastic novelty beer.
