Decent head production; good retention and very nice lacing. Body is fairly hazy.
Noticeably dank aroma, along with pepper, bright herbs, and tropical and citrus fruit.
Nice moderate bitterness, with pine and citrus up front. Moderate dankness growing through mid sip and strengthening through the finish. Not particularly sweet, despite the heavy malt base. May be listed as a NE-style IPA, but it's a little closer to WC to my palate.

Pours a pale color that is reminiscent of pineapple juice. There was a very thin layer of head. The nose is very muted - not much to say beyond that. The flavor is very, very hoppy but there's not much else.
This offering is very much a one trick pony.

Tasted in a Rastal Teku from a one pint can on June 22, 2018. Canned 06.20.18. Fresh by 08.20.18. Another killer beer from Hubbard's Cave. Highly recommended.
