Poured into a 13 oz Tired Hands Teku glass can’t figure out when it was canned. Pours a dark cloudy orange with a finger plus sticky off white head that leaves plenty of thin rings of lace. 4
Smell is apricot, melon, honey, biscuity caramel, and some grapefruit. 3.75
Taste follows I am thinking this can is few months old, apricot, biscuit, honey, melon, and grapefruit. 3.5
Mouthfeel is a big medium, plenty of life, a tad dry, and goes down easy enough at 8% ABV. 3.75
Overall this not a bad beer, but so many greats I could be drinking, just o.k. 3.75

Served from a can at the brewer, that's a first. The liquid looks like apricot juice, meaning super cloudy with a dark amber color. Decent head some blanketing lace.
Strange plasticy smell, reminds me of airplane glue. Very unusual.
The flavor is a large step upward. The base is slightly sweet, rich bodied, and alcoholic. Lots of carbonation. The bitterness is soft but balancing. The aftertaste leans bitter.

Poured from crowler
L: Light amber haze with no sediment. Night lacing and head retention.
S: Huge Mosaic presence here. Tropical fruits reign supreme. Fresh passionfruit, kiwi, mango.
T: Sweetness throughout and the same tropical fruits from the nose. Clean finish with a kiss of alcohol on the back of the tongue.
F: Well balanced NE creamy body without going into mac n' chz territory.
Superb DIPA from Winter Hill. Sign me up for another.
