Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a one pint can on December 4, 2020.

Can. Pours hazy but the color of the beer is bright. Glowing orangey-yellow. Thin but consistent head. Very kind with the lacing. Haze-o-meter™ = 7.8. Softer aroma. Mostly tropical fruits. Almost a bit of tart fruit but not in a wild yeast sense. More like a tart fruit flesh smell. Flavor is soft fruit hops. Tropical fruit hops again. Definitely a bit of pine and grass, too. A bit of creaminess but far from a milkshake. Light bitterness, carb, and alcohol. A beer that's been done before many a time but this was done pretty well.

 

Pours a hazy light straw color with a fresh thin white head. Smell has citrus with grapefruit rind some pine. Taste is citrus forward some berries , A dry mouth feel with pine resin and citrus ,a lot of hop flavor and bitterness at 5.5 ABV, i liked it.

 

 

 

 

 

Session ABV strength. Wonderful resinous aroma with undertones of grapefruit. The typical ugly northeast IPA but even uglier with a sick pale yellow coloring. Nice head and lacing. A pleasant dry finish with a relatively sharp finish.
