Pours a slight hazed golden color with a fresh white head. Smell is fruity with citrus/grapefruit has melon and caramel malts . Taste follows the nose citrus hops with some pine and papaya . Mouthfeel sweet dank some bitterness , the brew left me underwhelmed.

Label says this is dry hopped with Nelson, Simcoe, and Motueka. Pours a handsome clear yellow with sticky foam in the IPA glass. Very fragrant with citrus. More scents of melon and pineapple. Tastes like candied grapefruit peel with mango liqueur, if there is such a thing. Very hot with hop oils.
There is some malty sweetness, but it's less rich than many DIPAs. It gets quite acidic after some sipping. Overall this is a hugely hopped but "drinkable" brew that is worth tasting for its avalanche of flavors. From the 16 oz can purchased at a San Clemente liquor store.

4 oz pour at Wild Barrel Brewing in Temecula (attached to an axe throwing facility which just seems awesome).
Pours a clear dark golden pushing the border of copper tone with finger + of off white head.
Aroma slightly floral, tangerine, caramel malt with dank pine notes.
Taste starts malty sweet, tropical, tangerine, somewhat sticky with piney resinous hop bitterness.
Medium mouthfeel with lingering resinous bittersweetness and a crisp finish. Must have really liked this as first sip just made me smile.

Maybe its past its peak (can is 6 weeks old), but the nose was super mute for a DDH recipe, and the taste had way too much malt sweetness prominence for my palate and preferences. Might've been spectacular fresh, but I don't plan to revisit based on this can.
