Look: Slightly opaque orange and the pour got away from me, leading to a HUGE head leaving behind solid lacing
Aroma: Candied orange, passionfruit, sweetened strawberries, dank, pineapple, grapefruit, some pine. Malt presence as well but in the background
Taste: Follows nose but more pronounced pine. Starts off straight pineapple/orange/grapefruit - tropical fruit, berries and dank follow. Some honey-like malt keeps things corralled. Citrus rind on the finish. Good bite, medium dryness, and quenching
Mouthfeel: Full bodied, medium carbonation – great. Slightly sharp and dry finish keeps its drinkability dangerously high
Overall: This is tasty stuff. These folks seem to jive with me on most of their offerings and this one is no different. Tasty first iteration (for me) and I will keep my eyes peeled for future releases. Just saw the hop bill and batch number stamped on the bottom of the can; Vic Secret, Strata, Galaxy. Bomb

16oz can (dated 3/23/20) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a densely cloudy burnt orange color with over an inch of white head that loong retention and good lacing.
The aroma was fairly benign, some slight earthy and fruit hops showed, but no malt.
On the tongue, the hops popped a bit brighter, some citrus fruit, along with some floral, and tropical fruit, aromas.
The body was medium-light, a bit tart, and had a semi-dry finish.
Drinkability was OK, I'd have it again, but maybe not two in a row.
Overall, a solid and enjoyable brew, if not spectacular. Worth a shot if you see it.

16 oz. can from Lifesource Natural Grocers in Salem OR
$3.79......took me w while to figure out that this was #6..from the numbers at the bottom of the can.
Pours a clear golden coloured body with a rather large frothy off white head.
Very lemon centric citrus hops..sweet lemon..little grass..malts pale. OK
Taste similar lemon drops and biscuits malts..some dank way in the back. Smooth .Interesting.
Nice fresh and eager mouth feel..never cloying or boring..keeps the beer moving fast!
Nice drinkable IPA..style i like.
