Likely packaged less than 2 months ago, but no date. Poured from a pint can into my Dogfish Head shaped pint glass.
Bright, clear amber liquid with a soft ivory cap. Fine soapy lacing, good retention.
Woodsy aroma with citrus and hints of white wine grapes/minerality. Hop forward yet mild with a hint of biscuit.
Pine and orange on the palate with hints of scallion melding into the crackery malt. Moderate but fleeting bitterness. Finishes dry with a hint of spice/resin.
Medium-light bodied, decent carbonation, slightly sticky/oily but with a little tannic bite as well.
More than the sum of its parts - good synergy if not particularly complex.

Poured from a 1 pint can.
A nice bitter West Coast style IPA pours a pretty clear gold /amber not a big nose at all.
So many IPA's this one is mid pack, nice easy drinking with a good bitter finish.

So amazed at clarity of pour impressed immediately - golden with 2 fingers puffy white head.
Aroma piney, citrus hops, grapefruit, and notes of caramel malt, slightly floral.
Taste clean sweet caramel malt, floral sweetness with grapefruit, mildly resinous pine, orange, orange peel, tropical fruit - bitterness is restrained.
Medium mouthfeel - smooth and exceptionally drinkable - moderate carbonation with a slightly bittersweet finish.
This is clearly a 2021 West Coast IPA - flavour and hop presence without the old punch to the face bitterness.

Clear amber brew with plenty of foam in the snifter. Sudsy and substantial mouthfeel. Aroma of greens and grapefruit peel. Mellow taste of malt with a little sweetness to start. Bread and yeast notes.
Starts with a piney flavor, something like turnip greens, and a touch of resins in the aftertaste. Citrus peel finish. Moderately bitter in the classic IPA character. From the 16 oz can shipped by City Beer Store. Dated 08/29/20 on the bottom.

Can from New Seasons.
A clear orange with a dense white head with good retention and lacing, this looks solid. The nose is bright and pungent with plenty of pine bitterness, grapefruit zest and rind, a little candied orange peel, and resin. Mild caramel like malt notes are present. The palate opens clean, bitter, pungent and punchy with pine, grapefruit, orange peel, grapefruit zest and bitter grapefruit juice. The mid palate is clean and bitter with a well focused intense pungency that you don't often encounter these days. Drying, reainy and bitter on the finish, this beer is medium light in body and softly carbonated. An excellent IPA
