Had a lot of Aslin lately but this is one of my favorites. Not the Juice bomb that they are normally producing. This had some pine and pineapple, maybe grass in the aroma and flavor. Medium mouthfeel with no lingering bitter. This is a great IPA and I have no idea why it is rated lower than a lot of their other offerings. Outstanding!

Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass. Very recently canned.
Pinkish orange body color, almost like hibiscus but has a much deeper red color to it. Somewhat clear with very fine carbonation. Soapy residual head, two fingers with some very shampoo like appearances. Really beautiul body color.
Aroma goes for a bit of subtlety it seems. Small cherry fruit tones, and touches of vanilla, but soft hop presence of earth and a touch of possible grapefruit. Very different animal, not sure where this is going on the palate.
Really nice juiced body, sort of the epitome of grandness without going overboard. Thick rich malts supporting a cherry and hop mix of dank and tropic notes. Creamy finish but with little sensing vanilla flavor. Speaking of which where is the cocoa? Fruity tones are nicely matched
Comes off as a bit overkill, with some of the special ingredients adding more to the body and appearance as to the flavor of the brew. But it is a very nice fruited IPA.

upfront, clean, some cherry, some slight resin, creshendo to a dank, creamy, with some mild grapefruit pith bitter, malty, possibly cacao coming through on the finish, can't pick out the vanilla, no booze, dangerously smooth, everything blends pretty well and I was skeptical it would, aslin is legit, very solid dipa

Poured from a 16 oz can into a Willi Becher pint glass.
L - Pours a reddish dark Amber color wil a white head.
S - As soon as I opened the can I could smell the hoppiness.
T - Tastes of hops with some subtle cherry and cocoa on the finish.
F - Medium body with medium to light carbonation.
O - Pretty nice IPA. I would have liked slightly more carbonation.
