Hazy, juicy pour. Very creamy head of foam, thin white lace.
Sweet, passion fruit nose. Almost perfume-y... pleasant but needs some balance.
Slightly bitter, sweet, malty, tangerine. Good profile.
Creamy, slightly sticky. Very smooth: good body

16 oz. can
Pours cloudy hazy opaque gold with a creamy frothy white foam head. Smells like sweet peach, ripe tropical fruit, mango, pineapple, guava, passionfruit, berries, lychee, orange citrus, grapefruit, caramelized bready toasty crackery wheaty malt, with dank spicy resinous floral earthy herbal grassy pine. Tastes like explosive juicy peach, ripe mango, pineapple, guava, passionfruit, berries, lychee, orange citrus, grapefruit, caramelized bready toasty crackery wheaty malt, with dank spicy resinous floral earthy herbal grassy pine. Feels medium-full bodied, creamy smooth with moderate low carbonation. Overall a really great DIPA.

Canned 10/10/17; drank 10/16/17 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque orange/yellow appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice, noisy white head; frothy tree-rung lace.
Mango, pineapple & faint grass notes in the nose.
Soft, medium mouthfeel.
Mango, cream & pineapple flavors up front; mild dry grass notes on the finish. No booze heat.
Juicy but balanced enough to be palatable; one of the better Monkish I've had.
