Can stamped 05/17/19.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a modest looking orange glazed semi-hazy yet a stifled transparency tried to insert some direction. Quickly dissipating sheet of paper white foamy head. Glossy looking sliding ring of lace running into some strings.
The aroma had semi-sweet to crisp bitter and freshly plucked pine needles meshing with some freshly cleaned laundry. Mild biscuits, orange blossom and honey glide in underneath.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet side at first then developed more of a balance between the bitter side and the sweet side as it warmed. Semi-dry piney and floral with orange blossom and slight honey in the aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Nice semi-low carbonation and a sturdy ABV. Full IPA-like grip as it finishes crisp, semi-dry and floral.
Overall, nicely done American IPA. I thought this was going to be a New England styled one but I was wrong. Still, this is well worthy of coming back to.

16 oz. can.
Moderate to vigorous pour yields a one inch plus white head over a slightly hazy golden body with some lacing. Nose of tropical fruit (pineapple), citrus (orange, tangerine), and a bit of pine. Taste mirrors nose very nicely with a slightly bitter citrus pith, slightly pine, and slightly dry finish. The pineapple comes forward after warming. Nice feel and overall, a real nice addition to their H2H legacy. Cheers!
