Poured from 16oz tall can into a tulip. Canned 5/22/20.

Appearance: murky dark-yellow body with a finger of frothy ivory foam atop. It looks good to me!

Smell: fruity hop aroma with lots of melon, but also a soupçon of pineapple and stone fruit. I like it.

Taste: the flavor is a bit brighter than the aroma, though largely of the same composition of pineapple, melon and maybe just a little stone fruit. Bitterness is low, but there's an almost-sour sharpness that I am not 100% convinced should be here. It's still a tasty enough beer, but it's not without flaws.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: the kind of sharpness that I'm perceiving in this beer does bring it down a notch, but for the most part it is a well-composed IPA.

Very hazy, lots of particulates, good first impression. Smell is a little week, expecting a bit more here. Easy drinking & smooth mouthfeel. Overal drinkable beer, But not my favorite of this style.
