Wow. Nice head on the beer and a beautiful slight reddish color to the beer/ light orang pink. A little bit of berry aroma but very light. Body is thick but goes nicely with the beer. Flavor is not overpowering with berry. Which is really nice the hops still come through which gives the beer almost a berry orange juice flavor.

Looks like pink grapefruit juice with a tiny head that fully dissapated and left very little spotty lacing.
Aroma is mild - don't really pick up any of the berries at all. Decent basic IPA aroma, just too faint for my liking.
Taste is stronger and fruity with pretty strong up front bitterness. Can't really say this has raspberries or blueberries, it's more hop fruity.
Feel is medium, again very solid and lasting bitterness, smooth and creamy.
Overall, it's probably more an issue with me than the beers, but I've yet to come across a milkshake IPA that I really like and would drink again. Still searching, but not for much longer.

No canned date but very recently released
Appearance - Pours out and is literally the color of grapefruit juice, with an off-white, thin head that might reach 1/4 finger thick. Sub-par retention results in a thin, broken surface with a very thin ring of suds around the edge of the glass. A few broken lines and small spotting make up the lacing.
Smell - Hoppy aroma with citrus bitterness, mostly. Lesser berry character. Faint floral notes and a trace of clean, earthy oatiness.
Taste - Follows the nose. Hops that are citrusy upfront and throughout, followed by some moderate berry fruitiness. Grapefruit pith bitterness becomes a major player in the finish, leaving an aftertaste that's mostly pithy with hints of berry tartness and sweetness.
Mouthfeel - Medium-to-full in body with fair, tingly carbonation. Silky, creamy texture makes this an easy drinker before a slightly dry finish.
Overall - Good beer, but not much of a 'berry milkshake DIPA'. I like this beer, but considering the price and the lack of 'milkshake' as advertised, it's not something I'd consider buying again. A bit of vanilla may have helped greatly to carry this idea forward.
