Can. It is raining as I write this review. I like rain. This beer was good. Hazy IPA. decently done. Pulled back on the aroma, haze, flavor, and overall effort. Congrats!

No smell. Tastes like a bad lager. Very disappointed. I was probably too generous.

Thanks to BrutalFarce for this one, from a ninja box during the Rookies BIF #2. 16oz can poured into 14oz teku. Pored a very hazy medium gold color with about an inch of white head that had moderate retention and light lacing.
The aroma was led by fruity hops, with a slight bit of grain as a base. The fruit really pops out on the tongue, almost candyish, with just a hint of malt showing through.
The body was light-medium, as seems to be the trend these days, was a bit sticky in the middle, and had a finish between semi-sweet and semi-dry. Drinkability was fine, the beer was smooth and easily quaffable. Overall, a nice brew, worth a shot if you see it.

Artificially sweet and malty after taste. I love Relic but this beer didn’t seem to be an IPA.

Does not appear hazy. Looks clear. Aroma is yeasty. Very yeasty. Smells like a lager. Im wondering if this can is old or was improperly stored. This does not taste like a relic ipa. Paid good money but there is nothing left... just yeast and alcohol. Bummed. :(

12oz can. Pours a murky burnt yellowish orange color with a small amount of head. Some lacing. Fruity aroma of melon, pineapple, lime, tangerine, peach and sweet pine. The taste is lots of pineapple followed up by the lime and pine. Melon and pineapple finish with somsome bread crusts. Piney, minty finish. Medium bodied. Some alcohol presence.

Pours a hazy golden hue. Soapy white head. It looks like a Bissell beer without the minerality. Not horribly aromatic, a little bit of peach. It does have a mineral flavor profile/mouthfeel. It reminds me of those chewably Flintstones. That's not a negative, I liked those a lot as a kid. This adult beverage is making me feel like a kid.
