16oz can from Brooklyn, USSA

Great looking beer. A great looking beer to me is unfiltered and full of chunks. Smells like tropical pop-tarts (if that's even a thing yet). Alcohol is very well hidden, I could pound a few of these on a hot day and would have no clue how ruined I was. Thick and sweet and hoppy, the tropical aspects are also undeniable; pineapple pulling the heavy punches on the taste buds.

Very good for the style, but average for an IPA these days

Good. Not picking up all the fruits mentioned. Mostly citra and generic fructose type sweetness. Full body. Smooth and tropical, low bitterness. I wish it had more distinct fruit flavors. Reminiscent of an omnipollo fruited ipa.

Pours super hazy. Fluffy white head that leave heavy lacing

Smell is super tropical. Pineapple, mango, citrus, peaches. Hoppiness is there, but the fruitiness wins out.

Taste is huge notes of pineapple, mango, citrus. hints of vanilla. Like a creamsicle.

MF- Way creamier and fuller than any IPA I've had.

Overall this is a super tasty IPA. Hoppy enough to still taste like an IPA, but sweet and fruity with a high IPA. Good summer beer.

Nice golden opaqueness. A little boozy with a ton of pineapple on the nose. Tropical flavor hits very hard. Really delicious beer with a lot of flavor.
