[IMG] Poured into a 13 oz Tired Hands Teku glass not sure when it was canned, but maybe less than a week ago. Pours a beautiful almost completely purple with a 2 plus finger sticky slightly haze infused off purple head that leaves thin, hazed off white lace behind. 5
Smell is papaya, blueberry, boysenberry, and white grapefruit. 4.5
Taste is what you would expect, blueberry hits the palate first, papaya, boysenberry, and grapefruit just assault the entire palate making your taste buds dance. 4.75
Mouthfeel is a solid medium, plenty of carbonation, not dry at all, and at 8.8% ABV I am trying to slow down but it is so tasty that is a tall order. 4.5
Overall this is so different and tasty, it makes you wonder why it has taken so long for me to try a blueberry IPA and I trust they are out there, but this one really just dazzles. Thanks @jzeilinger for this spectacular can. 4.5

Appearance is a slightly watered down grape kool aid color and poured with a half finger of light pink head.
Aroma is blueberry, pine, grapefruit and maybe some floral.
Taste follows nose. Blueberry upfront, pine, grapefruit and a hint of floral hops.
Feel is slightly thin for a DIPA. Ever so slightly dry . Carb is moderate .
Overall a very unique IPA that sounds questionable but was really quite enjoyable. The grape is a nice break from the usual tropical fruit flavors. Thanks to @thebeers for this opportunity.

L - 1-finger pinkish head atop a transluent maroon body.
S - blueberries, grapefruit, brown sugar.
T - blueberry syrup poured on top of grapefruit slices. Honey, orange, grass, pine, a little cough syrup. Low bitterness. Moderate sweetness. Low booziness.
F - medium body and carb.
O - a huge blueberry showcase, but a little too medicinal to truly enjoy.

Clear purple with three fingers of airy raspberry-colored head that are quick to dissipate and leave sparse, spotty lacing.
Delicate aroma of floral hops, blueberry and a piney spiciness. Smells lovely.
Refined piney, West Coast bitterness shows up front in the taste. There's some clear blueberry in the middle. And then a light, almost-watery citrus pith bitterness mixes with the blueberry on the backend. A little peppery spice is also present throughout.
Light bodied for a DIPA with just enough carbonation.
This is a decent beer, but isn't as good, IMO, as regular Shape of Hopes to Come or Pineapple Haze. The nose is great, but the flavors don't combine quite as well in the taste.
