This IPA hits you with huge aromas of orange, peach, and apricot as soon as you open the can. The nose is followed by a smooth bitterness and soft mouthfeel as it delivers tropical fruit flavors.

Poured into a tall clear pint glass. Appearance is a somewhat dark and hazy orange with more than a finger's worth of creamy white head.
Aroma is very complex, but fruity. Tropical hops, bubblegum, apricot, tangerine, papaya, lemon, peach, pineapple, passion fruit, melon, and honey.
Tasting Juicy Fruit bubblegum and fruity notes very well, along with a bread malt and cracker. Some pine too. While fruity it's not too sweet or overwhelming, in synergy with the hops. Body is medium-light.

On tap, pours a slightly hazy, light gold. Dense white head leaves curtains of lace. Pine and citrus balanced by some malt. Nicely bitter. Good beer.

12 oz can poured into a snifter.
Light orange with a nice white head-leaves nice spotty lacing.
Tropical, slightly dank nose.
Tropical hops, juicy fruit gum, touch of dankness. Slightly sweet finish that turns into bitter rind.
Mouthfeel is medium and smooth. Goes down easy.
Another winner from Madtree. I will revisit again soon.

Poured from 12 oz can to an IPA glass. Medium amber orange color with a steady finger foam head and lingering lacing. Apricot and mixed citrus fruit aroma. The taste is a bit sweeter than expected with the flavors mirroring the smell. The IPA bitterness comes in a bit later. After I finished the beer I read that Mad Tree developed this particular IPA to expand the style to people who don’t usually care for IPAs. I could see that it might be successful in that effort as the typical bitterness works more as a balance to the fruit first of this IPA. The feel was medium bodied with just enough carbonation to stimulate the experience. Overall I enjoyed the beer and will definitely drink it again.

Thanks Mike.
This was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was about a medium dark orange to amber color with a thin cap of a little white foamy head softly sliding off to leave some speckled lace.
The aroma had a nice blend of apricot, tangerine, papaya, lemon and some crushed white pepper rolling into some doughy malts.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet side slightly and punched in an ever so slightly bitterness effectively doing it's due diligence to balance nicely. Mild aftertaste of tangerine/papaya/lemon semi-sweetness with a touch of bitterness.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation and ABV. Semi-crisp hoppy tangerine/lemon/papaya sweet finish.
Overall, pretty good AIPA I'd be willing to come back to if I could find again.
