Fresh fresh fresh from a can.
This pours a light beige color with decent foam. Had I expected haze? No, but I was surprised how light in color this poured.
I get a big fusel aroma from this up front, more so than any big hoppiness. The hops come across while sipped, with a dank and sticky kick. Some booziness cuts across the palate. It's just a little too hot and unbalanced for my tastes. I wonder if some rest would have done this some good.

Extremely well balanced beer with hops and malts and a beautiful color. The mouth feel is great and leaves you wanting more. A subtle but weak nose. Great beer overall

Fieldwork knocks out another great IPA. East drinking for being 9.3. beautiful copper color.
great fresh taste. Would revisit again but they haven't had a beer yet that I wouldn't revisit. Cheers

special 420 release from fieldwork
looks ok in the glass. semi hazy but rs definitly west coast style!
wow the aroma is fantastic! probably the dankiest beer i've ever smelled
taste is alright, a bit better than average. nice bitterness and nice hops.
mouthfeel is alright, better than average, hides the abv extremely well
overall the aroma is stellar, this one is super fresh, flavor might improve in a week or so, i have a feeling it will, atleast for my palate. gonna tackle that second can in a couple of weeks!
thanks for the hook up andres!

not for me - thick with the grassy/moss smell and taste. what i think some people would call "dank" but i just dont love it. interesting for fieldwork though - most of their beers are either too tame for me or very crisp (which I enjoy quite a bit) but this was one that had too much of a taste i didnt like...interesting.

Draught pour at Davis Beer Shoppe into a tulip glass. Pours golden yellow with thin room of white head that dispated quickly. Nose fairly mute and tropical. It opens up more add it warmed and gained some earthy, floral, and dank notes. Taste much more dynamic. Balance of tropical and citrus elements with a hint of dankness that gained in intensity as it warmed. Mouthfeel is on the thinner side, carbonation low, and a fairly dry and very astringent finish. Good, but not something I'll seek out for a repeat.
