Tall can

Pours the expected hazed dull tangerine, off white frothy cap, leaves super fine spotty lacing.

Tropical fruit nose

Nose carries through to the palate...tropical and yummy

Thanks to the Lung for dropping off a four pack of this for me...tasty and worth picking up if you happen to see it in your area...

 

 

 

 

 

Poured from a 16 oz. can into a Funk Brewing Teku glass. Canned on 10/20/2016, it was exactly one week fresh!

Appearance: Looks like pulpy OJ. Definitely a turbid IPA.
Aroma: Smells like pine, catbox and sour lemons with some tropical fruits as well.
Taste: Tastes like bitter pine and orange juice and grapefruit.
Mouthfeel: Light mouthfeel, surprisingly light. Love the slightly lingering bitterness.
Overall: A tasty DIPA, which I think 7.6% is relatively low to be calling it a DIPA. That aside it doesn't detract from the easy drink-ability of this beer or the style they are trying to do justice too.

Huge thanks to jzeilinger for sending me the beers and the glass!

Poured into a Lost Abbey long stim tulip glass canned on 10/20/16. Pours a very cloudy dark yellow with a a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves excellent lace.

Smell is mango, guava, passion fruit, pinapple, tangerine, and grapefruit.

Taste follows tropical from start to finish, pinapple, mango, papaya, passion fruit, tangerine, and a healthy dose of grapefruit in the finish.

Mouthfeel is a little bigger than medium, moderate carbonation, not dry, and dangerously drinkable for 7.6% ABV.

Overall this is exactly what I had hopedal it was, thanks @jzeilinger for this excellent fresh can of juice!
