Overall: Definitely the worst beer names of any brewery I know. Still a good and hoppy IPA. Authentic west-coast flavors. A bit juicy, and a mild bitterness. The flavors are spot on though. Very enjoyable and this DDH and juicy West-coast hybrid-style IPA is growing on me. (Rating: 4.00)

16oz can. Bottom stamp reads 'PKGD ON 11/27/2023'. Beers from The Veil are not often seen sold in Minnesota. We will have to see if this was from an occasional drop or if it will become a regularity.
Hazy, deep gold colored body. One thick finger of white head upon pouring reduces to a creamy partial cap and high ring.
Aroma of orange and dank weed resin. Leaves behind two partial rings of lacing.
Taste has a proper bitterness appear at the very end of the taste profile. Sweet flavors from the onset - orange, lemon, green melon, and a bit of strawberry. Throughout there is the appearance of dank weed resin, which brings a woody aspect to the brew. More bitter, and then sweet again in the aftertaste.
More than medium mouth feel, with a soft texture with a touch of stickiness. Higher ABV% is hidden but promotes the sweetness. Good carbonation.
Far from a classic West Coast IPA because of its soft texture, lack of body clarity, and only a momentary appearance of bitterness. Still a decadent IPA.
