Big juicy IPA with a punchy
The look is very thick with a completely opaque grapefruit color and little to no head.
A nice hoppy, sweet aroma
The taste has a split personality, with a big hop-forward, sweet and tart juicy flavor, but a somewhat harsh, almost stingy bite mid tongue.
Overall - an intense IPA that might be a little "overcooked", coming across with harsh bite, but still good.

Juicy. A bit sweet on the finish.
An India Odwalla Ale to be sure. Minimal bitterness.
Apricot and mango impart a nice fruity dimension to this enjoyable ale.
Highly drinkable.

Gigantic bubbly head, fades semi quickly, little left and little lacing, super murky pale light color
Nose brings pine, maybe a bit vegetal and oniony surprisingly, lots of mango, sherbet, mild apricot, turning into tropical and citrus fruit juice, mango and Apricot puree, pineapple, doughy creamy wheat malt
Taste is also weird, some pineapple, mango skin, mango and apricot puree, fleshy, little herbal piney, mild creamy doughy wheat malt and flour like, tons of mango pit and the stringy thing on unripe mangoes, fair bitterness, generic tropical and citrus juice blend, turning spicy and like chewing on hop pellets
Mouth is med bod, a little soft, decent carb
Overall eh, not that great, weird pine and like pit of unripe mango, some decent hop characters so not too bad
