Pours a nice golden orange color its hazy but not like smoothie hazy as some NE IPA's, kind of looks like you mixed a regular clear IPA and a NE one together. two fingers of white dense foam that falls slow and laces well.
Aroma is nice over ripe citrus notes with some tropical hints and a light dank tobacco note which may be why the citrus has a little funk tint to it. Smells kind of like a mixture of IPA style too.
Taste is nice tropical fruits up front moves quickly to bitter citrus rind flavors that bring up some bitterness. Finishes out with lingering citrus bitterness with added light dank overripe fruit rinds not quite tobacco level though but close. I like it its a good IPA that seems to combine the best of both styles together.
Mouthfeel is solid medium with carbonation that is a touch to the right of medium.
Overall I am enjoying this one, actually glad I got a 4 pack of it. If I lived on the Cape I could see this being my go to IPA.

16 oz can into chalice. Dated 6/27/19.
Look is a nice hazy yellow. Smell is citrus and tangerine. Taste follow with a spicy taste. Feel is medium. Overall a nice IPA that I would drink again.

Nearly fully opaque maize orange with a light frothy white blanket that clings in ridges.
Smell is dank and resinous with pungent pineapple, mango, peach and graham.
Taste is slightly spicy and dank with plenty of tropical and citrus fruit and a biscuity swallow.
The medium to light body has a mild airy froth and a semi-dry tingly finish.
It's weird how few reviews of this there are over the past two years. It's quite good.
