12oz can. Poured out a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, white head of foam. It smelled of pineapple, mango and orange. Sweet tropical fruit taste with a piney bitterness. Not really picking up lactose or vanilla.

This beer was included in a mixed sampler pack from Left Hand. Goes a step further than a standard IPA with a bit of a creamsicle note in the back there. Dangerously drinkable at 7% with a slight sweetness that masks the strength well. I'm not sure I would have bought it on its own but it was a nice little surprise in the pack. I'd try again.

Tastes like a decent IPA. Nothing too special but nothing offensive either. Smells hoppy at first but has a mild hop flavor without too much bitterness except in the form of a fruit bitterness. Like a grapefruit or lemon. Maybe a little orange flavor. Certainly smooth not too carbonated. Overall easy drinking and would probably not realize it was 7%. Not bad.

Best by August 20th on the bottom of the can.
It pours a pale hazy gold, great head of foam and lacing.
The smell is of grapefruit, grass, very slight dose of lactose.
Grapefruit and grass flavours, a bit of dankness, very mild lactose, which is a good thing excepting for what th
the style is.
Mouthfeel is fine but this is another beer that is not for me.
