Cloudy, dirty yellow color.Big, white head. Tropical fruits, bubblegum, and some pine in the aroma. Soft, sweet beginning with nice hoppy bitterness afterward.

A: The beer is quite hazy yellow in color and gets cloudier toward the bottom of the can. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, but consistently left a short head covering the surface.
S: Moderate aromas of holiday fruit cake are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and is all about flavors of holiday fruit cake such as lemons, mangos, and raisins with little to no bitterness.
M: It feels just about medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is quite unlike any IPA that I had before and smells and tastes just like a holiday fruit cake.
Serving type: can

Core is great for a yellow good head. pretty clear in terms of the look of this beer. Label art is nice. Good citrus taste to this beer. Drinkable. Solid.

Thoroughly hazed medium golden-yellow body with a coupla fingers of bright white foam... Juicy and moderately sweet in that low bitterness New England-style... soft and fluffy with gentle fruit suggestions of pineapple, grapefruit, peach, and a hint of lime... Doesn't run too sweet, which I liked, and the feel was satisfyingly smooth and creamy... Maybe nothing game-changing, but a really enjoyable beer... No canning date but Iconyc's Instagram page indicates this was a 7/4/18 release...

Poured from a 32oz growler into a glass.
4.25/4/4/4/3.75
Opaque, hazy hay colored. Heavy lacing.
Smells likes orange juice and hops.
Tastes like candied pineapple and hints of pine. Fresh, juicy, only moderately bitter. Very drinkable. Crisper than not.
Overall, a fun, tasty, if not super interesting IPA. Would drink again and again, if not buy.
