Picked up a 16 oz single can from the Craft Beer Hop Stop cooler 5-18-20 for $2.50 (part of one of Allen's great promos). Canned 5-6-20; consumed 7-11-20. Cold stored since purchase.

Beer poured a hazy turbid light orange with a nice white head with the original pour.

Nose is nice with citrus, tropical, and floral hopping presenting a nice bouquet.

Taste is nice, a combination of floral, grapefruit, orange, and a touch of gooseberry. Finishes with a nice rind/pine bitterness; 7/10 on my scale.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and very refreshing on this 115 degree afternoon.

Overall a nice IIPA that comes across as a NEIPA while using some old school hops. I like how the brewery labels the version number, the hops used, and the canning date - very smart on their part!
