Well they started canning this hopefully it's better than the bottle release that's been getting some pretty negative reviews. Looks a nice shade of hazy Amber Brown has a quarter inch of foam that settles to a non-existent ring. Smell is not very fruit pronounce slight hops. Taste is nice they Brew it with mangos now so it really heightens the tart flavor of this double IPA. What is quite decent ethanol kind of seeps through but it's not too hard to finish.
Overall a pretty decent beer not sure if I would have it again though.

A:
Thick tropical fruit puree with a couple fingers of puffy beige head that settles fairly slowly. Middling retention and no lacing. (3.5)

S:
Rich tropical sweetness and fruit meatiness. Passion fruit, thick mango sweetness, a whiff of sulphur and some other unpleasant fruit/alcohol related stuff as it warms. (2.75)

T:
Juice-like with a quick bracing bite that fades into fruit-juice tartness and finishes with a strong medicinal bitterness that lingers far too long. (2.5)

M:
Unripe-fruit juice with a dash of seltzer water, bitters and some pinesol. (2)

O:
This was not a very enjoyable beer to me. It certainly is not “their most bestest” or whatever.
For starters, it is not a nice-looking beer. I am a defender of the NEIPA look as a general rule. I think that they look nice. This one, however, looks too much like juice and even leaves a milky haze on the glass when swirled. Indeed, my main beef with the whole beer is that it seems more like juice than beer. The smell, taste and feel all seemed passable at first but after a few drinks and its warming up a little bit a sulfuric fruit character comes out in the nose, the tart/bitterness in the flavor becomes too much and the underripe-fruit/astringent finish with tylenol hints becomes too much. It was on the absolute cusp of being a drain pour. The beer-y-ness takes away from the fruit and the fruit takes away from the beer. To make matters worse, there is just too much going on in too many ways and a lot of things (hops and fruit) are present in too great of quantities for my tastes.
I would not have it again. Especially considering how solid their non-wacky beers are. (2)

Very hazy color, like peach juice. Aromas are an explosion of tropical fruits. Tastes a bit tart and extremely refreshing. Hops are the star and really get the passion fruit to convey themselves. The creamy quality of this beer really coats the whole mouth. The 8% ABV are unperceivable. A great beer!
