This pours with a slight chill haze. Light aroma and a slight tropical fruit note that creeps across the palate. Pleasant bitterness on this. Easily sessionable.

Bottle poured into a Drake's Brewing Co pint glass
A: Pours hazy golden amber with a frothy off whitehead that settles to a dense layer and leaves some nice lacing.
S: The smell is a trip to the farm with all kinds of fruit, citrus, tropical, orchard, and even vineyard, a bit of spice, wheat twang, crackery malt, and a touch of sweetness.
T: They threw the full fruit bowl into this one, white grape, grapefruit, passion fruit, orange, lemon, papaya, mango, and apricot, backed with some spicy pine, crackery malt, a nice wheat twang, and a touch of caramel sweetness.
M: Light to medium body, moderate carbonation.
O: The hops heads at Drakes are at it again. Very cool unique brew.

Handsome golden yellow brew with a long-lasting foam. Some lemon aroma with a whiff of pine and fermenting pineapple. Pleasantly sudsy mouthfeel. Rather sharp on the tongue. Some yeast in the last pour, so you might pour this our carefully in a big enough glass.
Some sweet malt to balance the moderate acidity. A little funk and fruit. Overall this is an extremely drinkable and friendly IPA. Plenty bitter in the aftertaste. Rated at 67 IBUs. There are eight different hops in the mix and it's dry-hopped with Jarrylo. From the 12 oz bottle purchased at Beach Front Liquor in San Clemente. Bottled on date is 03/13/17.
