Seems to pour thick. Purple color. Aroma is raspberry. Taste would be similar to a raspberry shake with a slightly hoppy finish. I really enjoyed this beer. Disappointed that it has been discontinued

Such a weird IPA very berry forward not much of any vanilla or doughnut dough to speak of then quickly to a very herbal bitter finish. Some may like this but it me I didn't enjoy it as much as I would have wanted.

Nice pink/purple color with a good aroma. This reminds me of several other fruity IPAs. I feared it would be too sweet, but it's actually just fruity. A really good beer!

Murky pinkish purple bet with a pink head that leaves a few random blobs of lacing on the glass. Nose is filled with raspberry and vanilla with a lemony citrus and yeast. Sweet and tart raspberries with lots of vanilla, done citrus and a nice tart/bitter finish. Lots of carbonation. Tasty beer.

16 oz can
Pours very cloudy dark pink, pinkish white head retains as a fine film.
Smells of citrus and raspberry jam over biscuit malts.
Flavor is of fresh berries and citrus over biscuit and cereal malts. Berry and herbal hop finish. Slight hint of cough syrup that is easy to ignore.
Medium body, lightly stinging carbonation.
Pretty good fruit IPA hybrid. The fruit flavor is mostly fresh and avoids being medicinal almost completely. The "donut" part of this isn't really present. It's just the "jelly." Decent, would have again.
