16oz canned 8-26-19, opened 11-17-19.
2 finger white head crests over the rim of the glass and has excellent retention. Opaque bright orange/gold DDH DIPA. Fresh, full lacing.
Ripe orange, clean pine, faint pineapple and various tropical fruit notes.
Big tangy passion fruit is a surprise out of the gates. Tropical notes take over in the flavor. Guava, pineapple. Mild orange middle to the end. Touch of pine in the finish as well.
Soft mouthfeel, medium body, low to medium carbonation. Full hop flavors and very low hop bitterness. 8% is well masked.
Very Good especially considering I was late to open this one, I was prepared to rate leniently...no need.

Can. White head. Hazy sunset orange.

This is a banger from FS. Straight pineapple and orange juice. Tropical, juicy, and fruity. Soft with no bitterness. Mango, payapa, melon. Wow! One of Minnesota’s finest.

Poured from a tallboy can into a Dogfish Head tulip

L: Hazed medium golden pour with thick foamy white head. Nice ring of lacing.

S: Juicy. Citrus and tropicals.

T.F: Tropical fruit juice to start. Grapefruit and orange rind. Honey and a bit of sweetness. Pineapple, spice, and mango. Modest bitterness. Creamy and sticky on the tongue. Medium bodied.

O: A solid DIPA. Gentle and drinkable with some good fruit flavor going on. Recommended.

A - Opaque golden tan color with a moderate dense lacing ring.

S - Pungent tropical fruit - guava, pineapple, and mango.

T - Mango, pineapple, and spicy fruit rind dominate this beer from start to finish.

M - Big medium body that finishes dry on the back of the palate and wet on the front of the tongue.

O - This is a D-IPA definitely worth checking out. Recommended.
