L: Poured from a tallboy can to a snifter glass. Had a yellow / orange color and a very cloudy consistency. Some sediment floating around. There was a half inch of foamy, fairly long-lasting head. Average lacing.
S: A very good aroma of citrus fruit, hops, coconut, malt, and tropical fruit.
T: Tasted of a decent amount of the advertised coconut (very sweet), a tinge malt (mostly in the finish; not a huge factor), a decent bit of hops (not overdone, but certainly present), a good amount of tropical fruit (mango, passion fruit), and a lot of citrus fruit (orange). A sweet, zesty flavor. Oddly off-putting at first, but it settles down. Pretty tasty.
F: A well-carbonated beer with a sharp finish. Medium-bodied.
O: A solidly done DIPA. Worth a try.

Well, this one was a little different for me and had some interesting aromatics. An almost, overly-sweet, overripe-citrus nose...with a slight whiff of hoppiness in there somewhere. The initial taste follows and is almost promising, but changes quickly into a piney-like hop burn bite. Although it has decent depth and feel, the taste along with the lingering hop burn (that almost has like a bad cologne type vibe to it...LOL) makes it a little tough to get down. Maybe I got a bad can, but this, unfortunately, did not fit my palate.

16 oz. Can
Poured into a Trillium glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger plus white head, which also leaves some nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, mango, coconut, lemon, lime), nice little diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, mango, coconut, lemon, lime), pretty nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV is hidden very well, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty brew, nice to see it around here. Orange Julius! Addictive! Milk Shake!

16oz can. Poured out a clear, golden orange color with a small, white head of bubbly foam. It smelled of citrus, subtle coconut and toasted caramel. Sweet citrus and caramel with subtle coconut notes.
