My good friend and old neighbor from Oswego gave me a can of this beer. It poured a hazy orangish with thin white head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had a fruit salad presence. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with apricot creamsicle appeal. The mouthfeel was fuller in body with smooth carbonation. Overall it's an interesting beer.

Appearance - Pours slightly hazy yellowish color with a nice tight white head that settles to a thick ring. Spotty lacing.
Aroma - The vanilla comes through well, not getting a ton of a specific fruit but there is a fruit presence. Just a hint of alcohol coming through.
Taste - Getting a little more fruit in the taste. Pineapple, tangerine for sure the lactose comes through well also. The alcohol I picked up in the nose is not as present in the taste.
Feel - A little thin, well carbed slightly dry finish.
Overall - Calling this a milkshake IPA from an appearance standpoint seems off. The nose is a little weak but the flavors are really nice.
