From a 16 ounce can, pours a very hazy yellow. Smell hit the moment I opened the can. Dank citrus carries through to the taste. Good body, very tasty beer.

Just drank a can dated 3 months ago and it was AMAZING!!! Perfect smell and taste and feel, maybe the color was a tad off but this was a stunning NEIPA. Wish I had more

Thickly opaque dark yellow with a short off-white head that dies quickly, Falcon Heavy is dankly cannabic, but softly so, gliding easily into grapefruit, mango and Smarties.

Canned on 9/19/18; consumed on 10/16/18

Pours a glossy dirty orange capped with a slight white head, which fizzles out quickly in favor of a fair bit of lacing around the glass and a thick ring of foam around the surface.

Aromas of grassy, herbal citrus, orange juice, mango, bits of pine, and fleeting creamy tropical notes.

Taste of earthy orange juice and overripe peach, growing to mildly sweeter notes of dank mango and creamy strawberry, then finishing with subtly bitter, herbal hops; prickly, earthy, but with a hint of citrus juice coursing through the profile for good-measured balance.

Mouthfeel is soft with a body on the lighter side; easy carbonation has this one trending toward juicy; the finish carries some gritty fruit character, but is mostly dry.

A DIPA like Falcon Heavy is just an example of how highly Triple Crossing has set the bar for me; an almost average kind of offering from them, and it’s still a great DIPA. So consistent and smooth throughout, a flavor profile filled with depth (although I do wish this one embraced a bit more intensity in its character), and effortless on the mouth. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Pours a murky orange with brown highlights, a one inch white head that is well retained and left spotty lacing. Smells of citrus and tropical fruits along with some earthy notes. Tastes of tangerine, orange rind, peach, apricot, a bit of malt and some earthy notes. Medium bodied and carbonation, mild bitterness and a creamy mouth feel.

Bought on the release date at triple crossing brewery fulton location on the 23rd of march 2018! Date is located on the bottom of cans! $17 4 pack of 16oz cans! Super Fresh! NICE location warehouse style taphouse/brewery! Friendly and knowledgeable staff! Aroma of the hops jump from the pop of can opening! Super creamy and smooth! At 8% watch out and call for a designated driver because you'll want a few of these beers! Have to try a comparison of this and their Falcon smash ipa! Another hit out of the park for TCB!! Thanks!

This is by far the best variant I have had of the base Falcon Smash IPA. Hopefully this one comes back around sooner than later, very highly recommended.
