At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, from the Cryo Hops Stash Pack from my favourite The Beer Store on Goyeau St. in nearby downtown Windsor. My second beer from the Springfield, Oregon brewery.

355 mL can from the LCBO, included in Hop Valley's Stash Pack; coded J2823 (I'm gonna go with Sep 28 2023) and served slightly chilled. Brewed under license at Creemore for the Canadian market.
Pours hazy and turbid, its golden orange-hued body topped with less than a finger of loose, frothy white head that recedes within a minute or so. A sudsy collar lives on, with a few swirls of the glass stirring up a decent swath of lacing - looks ok so far. It smells mostly of grapefruit, with added notes of orange, melon and indeterminate tropical fruits.
A very mellow IPA, with a fruity flavour profile that features little to nothing in the way of bitterness - grapefruit still figures in strongly, but I'm also getting notes of mango, melon and passion fruit. Finishes with grapefruit peel, berries and grape bubble gum, followed by a dank, fruity aftertaste with lingering shades of mango. Medium in body, with moderate carbonation that adds some bite, resulting in a crisp, smooth and somewhat fluffy mouthfeel; effortlessly easy to knock back for 6.5%
Final Grade: 3.94, a B+. Stash Burst is not a complex beer, but the combo of grapefruit peel and Citra cryo-hops imbue it with a fruity and approachable flavour profile that I found highly agreeable. I think I like this a little bit more than their Bubble Stash, but if you've enjoyed one then I figure you'll also enjoy the other - they're similar products, although Burst leans way towards the 'fruity' side of the scale, with Bubble landing more on the 'dank' side of the spectrum. Good enough to earn a spot in the rotation, assuming it's released as a single at some point.
