16oz can purchased from the fridge as a single for $3.99. No canned on date, but this seems like a pretty new offering in our neighborhood.
Look: Pours a pretty hazy orange color with a pillowy off-white head.
Smell: Big time pineapple juice and peach aromas, maybe some orange peel and apricot fruit leather thrown in too. Smells nice. Not much else; perhaps a bit musty and grassy also on the finish. Pleasant.
Taste: Very yummy. This tastes a lot like how it smells. I think that based on the appearance, I didn't expect it to be as drinkable as it is. It is very drinkable though. There is a pretty mild piney/pithy bitterness that is pleasant and an excellent counterbalance to the sweet, juicy, and fruity flavors up front. I like this - it has nice flavors and balance, with just a touch of acidity too.
Feel: It has a pretty soft mouthfeel. It also has a lightness to it that makes it very drinkable and refreshing.
Overall: It's a very enjoyable IPA. At 7% ABV, it's not short changing you on flavor and it is also very easy to drink for its size. Nice showcase of the tropical galaxy hop.

it was so unfiltered and muddy it was not great and Common Roots is awesome. Maybe its just me, next time I will leave the sludge in the can and not swirl the bottom into my pour.

-opaquely cloudy can pour hosts a fine foam cap and a light berry-pineapple aroma. The flavor is tropical fruit including mango. The hop bitterness is moderate and approaches a bit of hop burn. The finish is somewhat dry. This is tasty.

16oz can served in a pint glass. Appears to be dated 01/07/2010. I doubt it's a decade old, though.
Pours a hazy pale yellow with a medium sized head and medium to high carbonation. Smell is nicely tropical, bright and attractive.
Taste is right along the same lines.
Mouthfeel is medium, fairly dry. Overall, very nice beer.
