poured from a 16oz can into a veil willi becher pint glass. pours a hazy bright orange with a two finger white foam head. tropical fruits - pineapple, orange, grapefruit - along with resin, pine and bubblegum all on the nose. it has the perfect touch of dank weed to it that only those kiwi hops can produce; particularly as it warms up a little. i could smell this all day. taste follows with a slight hop bitterness and it seems to be missing some of that bubblegum character i get on the nose. much more of a dry, bitter grapefruit finish to it. a very soft, full mouthfeel with a slightly dry yet also slightly creamy finish. this is a damn tasty IPA.

Canned 6/7/22; drank 6/12/22 @ the Yarchives.

Opaque dull pale yellow appearance.

A violent pour yielded a nice, noisy off-white head; a thick curtain of tree-rung lace.

Lemon peel, lime & dry grass notes in the nose.

Creamy medium mouthfeel.

Dry lemon, lime & dry grass flavors.

Ultimately too dry, despite the creamy mouthfeel.

Not one I'll seek out again.
