16 oz. can.
Moderate pour yields a one inch or more egg shell colored head over a murky body with no lacing. Head has large bubbles which for me portends quickly dissipating head and the death knell of mouthfeel. Nice nose of tropical fruit, sweet citrus, and a bit of dank hops. Taste mirrors nose with a soft bitter finish. As stated earlier; feel is, for me, sub-par. Overall, there is a market for this type of beer, but it's not for me. Cheers!

This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was probably one of the thickest color-ed bodied I've ever seen in a New England styled IPA. The finger and a half 's worth of white foamy head swiftly died off to leave some super sporadic lace, really few and far between.
The aroma had a huge creamy orange, citrusy rind, grassy hop bits and a zesty to semi-spicy hop contour blending in nicely.
The flavor was moderately hop zesty with a grassy hop spice rolling into some sweet creamy citrusy/orange pulpiness. Mild aftertaste of orange and grassy to citrusy hops.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Nice and low carbonation with a good ABV. Semi-sticky finish with just a nip of hop burn, it really seems barely there but I am noticing it as it warms.
Overall, I'd say pretty good as a New England styled DIPA, I'd have again.
