Pours dark yellow orange gold color from can with huge frothy head that leaves ample lacing on the glass. Smells of citrus and tropical fruit and has a dank hoppy aroma to it also. Taste follows the nose here, there's some sweetness coming from something, a bit to much for me and I'm not sure that I care for the hop variety. Mouthfeel is great, smooth, great carbonation and balance. The beer is well done, just not my thing I guess.

L: Had this beer on-tap at Growlers to Go, poured into a pint glass. Had a bright, orange-yellow color and a super cloudy consistency. There was a half inch of foamy, fairly long-lasting head. Excellent lacing.
S: A very good aroma of dank hops, citrus fruit, malt, and tropical fruit.
T: Tasted of a decent amount of tropical fruit (passion fruit), some light malt notes (not overly prevalent), a good shot of dank hops, and some citrus fruit (orange). This is another well-balanced flavor. It has a subtle quality (once you get paste the dankness of the hops), that's easy to like. Sweet, fruity, and delicious.
F: A decent bit of carbonation with a smooth, creamy finish. Medium-bodied.
O: A solidly made DIPA. Drinkable.
