3/15/18 can date, so almost two months old for me. Still smells great! I’m really liking it. I find it unique enough that I would get it again. Doesn’t have the super soft mouthfeel that I love in the best NEIPAs (like 18th St’s Dime for instance) but it’s still nice. I hope they bring it back! Good job Drew!

Poured from a 16 oz. can into Tired Hands Teku. Canned on 03/15/18.
Appearance: Orange body with a definite amount of sediment floating around in it. Thick fluffy head that dissipated to a ring around the outside.
Aroma: Peach, papaya, a little dank spiciness, perhaps onion. citrus-grapefruit, lemon. Mellow almost muted, had to keep at this one to get these aromas.
Taste/Mouthfeel: A little odd, flavors are muted, more fruitiness than I expected, slightly tart. Body seems a little thinner than expected. Nice lingering tart and citrus on the palate.
Overall: Not bad, just a little different. I was wanting more from the flavor than I got.

Hazy dark bronze with two fingers of off-white head. Moderate lacing.
Light apple cider, orangey malt and pine make up the faint aroma.
Weak tasting, sort of like the nose, with a touch of sweetness and stronger watered-down bitterness and a very clean finish, which I attribute to the rice.
Medium bodied with solid carbonation.
Clean tasting and refreshing enough, but otherwise sort of plain. 3/16/18 canned on date.

Tasted in a Rastal Teku from a 1 pint can on April 4, 2018. Canned on 3/15/18. Double dry hopped DIPA collaboration with Tired Hands Brewing Company. Brewed with brown basmati rice and jaggery sugar. Interesting flavors from the rice and sugar.
