This West Coast Style IPA doesn’t shy away from the traditional bitterness of a true IPA while at the same time showcasing bold tropical fruit character. The beer starts off with a nose of ripe tropical fruit, including Pineapple and Papaya. Mango and nectarine follow through on the palate along with notes of cantaloupe and honeydew rounding it out. Nothing is held back with the bright, medium body that allows the showcase of fruit character to shine through. No fruit was harmed during the making of this beer because Hops the New Fruit!

look: 5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.25
Look : four finger white head, very hazy body. Practically exploded out of the can.

Smell : See below.

Taste : Malt, mild resin, mild orange, mild pineapple. This is definitely on the older side, so that's why the flavor seems muted.

Feel : Medium-high body and carbonation, mild-medium hop bitterness. Balanced upfront.

Other: Rather disappointing for a Matchless ipa.
