16 oz can purchased from Taylor's, no date.
Odell Teku.
Pours a really nice turbid honey-orange blush with a creamy head of 3 fingers, receding slowly to two. Lots of gloppy lace on the sides.
Aroma of mango sherbet, some farty yeast cake, with musty peach and papaya, with lots of fresh citrus - tangerine, orange, sweet grapefruit; slight floral notes.
Flavor is oddly sweet and brings some real mango and orange sherbet with tons of frozen strawberry, some basil, some graham, and some honey. Tasty. Maybe skews a bit too sweet, but still tasty. Has an absolutely extraordinary chunk of wet cantaloupe on the finish. Belches are cantaloupe. Nice.
(Edit : The aftertaste is what gets me. It stays with you. Cantaloupe for days. If you like wet musty cantaloupe you will love this beer.)
Feel is creamy and murky, like there's lots of microscopic particulate but you can't see it; has a resiny finish with some mild alcohol heat.
Overall, I find the Brewing Projekt tends to make their IPAs a bit too sweet but they occasionally do make decent beers. This is not one I'd visit frequently, in fact, if I were to buy a 4 pack I'd probably give one or two to friends because I'm not sure I'd be able to handle the sweetness over 4 tall cans before it went south on me. This is an easy drinker though, if a bit on the sweet side.

Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a one pint can on March 1, 2020. Hazy IPA brewed with Simcoe and Sabro hops. Nice thick haze with juicy fruit notes and a smooth creamy finish.
