A: The beer is quite hazy pale yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that quickly settled down, leaving delicate lacing covering the surface and a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of sourness and tropical fruits are present in the nose - pineapple seems to stand in particular.
T: The taste is both sour and fruity having flavors of pineapples and mangos with notes of coconuts along with hints of vanilla. There is a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels medium-bodied, crisp and a bit smooth and tart on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This is an interesting beer and and has evenly balanced qualities of both an IPA and a Fruited Kettle Sour. It drinks rather well considering its strength.

From one Proclamation IPA to the next, but this one is considerably fresher. A sour IPA was calling my name tonight given this hot weather, so it's a good thing I found this one in the fridge. It's got some interesting fruit editions, something I haven't had in the substyle of sour IPAs. Let's see what it's all about

Pours a hazy radiant yellow with 3 fingers of creamy white head that slowly fades to a nothing and leaves no lacing

There's really not all too much tartness in the nose here, and what's there could be mistaken for some hop oils. I'm picking up on aromas of bright pineapple, tangerine, overripe mango, doughy malt, light kiwi, and resinous hops

It's considerably more tart in taste, but the balance is a bit off, with the sour notes not staying in play for very long. On the front end of the sip I'm tasting tart tangerine, passionfruit, mango, and bready malt. The swallow brings a quick flash of tart orange before fading into sweeter notes of mango juice, resinous hops, bready malt, and red grapefruit

A medium body pairs with gentle carbonation, resulting in a crisp yet juicy beer. Finishes off dry but a bit too sweet

It's nothing great, but it's certainly not offensive. Not worth getting again but I wouldn't turn it down
