On tap at Fattey Beer Co in Rochester, NY.
This one pours a very hazy golden yellow color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like pineapple, pink grapefruit, passionfruit, and pine.
Aurora is a great brewery that sometimes suffers from consistency issues – this luckily falls near the great end of the spectrum. It’s got a nice spicy bitterness on the end, with a fantastically juicy overall feel to it – passionfruit, white grape, pink grapefruit, pineapple, etc, all that good stuff.
This is creamy and super drinkable, with a smooth finish.
This was quite enjoyable, and pretty much exactly what you want out of this sort of thing.

This is not a bitter IPA--it's actually sweet and fruity. Nice work with this recipe! A very hazy ale, it packs a punch at 8.5% abv and is very easy to drink. Try one if it comes to your locale.

From a growler, filled yesterday.
Moderately hazy orange, with light, very fine, off-white head, that leaves a ring of spotty lacing.
Smell is apricot, galia melon, kiwi, white grape , and candied mango.
Taste is peach, melon, white grape, kiwi, persimmon, and toasted grain with a touch of honey. Light, slightly drying bitterness.
Feel is medium, slick on the verge of syrupy, with light soft carbonation tingle.
Overall , very enjoyable DIPA, with an unusual flavor profile. A temperate fruit (not "tropical") version . ; ) No citrus, and no pine/grass. The malt shows up like in some old-school DIPAs, but a bit less prominent. The slight bitterness keeps it from being too sweet.
