Large 4-finger initial head that settles in a lumpy fashion. Plenty of wide 3D streaks after every sip. The liquid is dirty gold and cloudy.
Lightly earthy aroma with a semi-dry malt background.
Moderate body and carbonation. Relatively dry but with a decent malt start. There's a bit of juiciness to the flavor although the fruit is subdued. The bittering hop shifts the profile but doesn't eliminate the base. Decent length aftertaste coming from the hop.

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a hazy golden amber color with a small head of white foam. The head has a decent level of retention, fading over time and leaving a moderate level of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is quite heavy of a papaya and mango smell mixed with lots of herbal and grapefruit hop smells. Othe smells of a grainy and bready nature, along with some tangerine are in there as well. A touch of peach and some harvest fruits are there as well, rounding out the aroma.
Taste – The taste begins with a lightly grained bready flavor mixed with a decent showing of some of the tropical fruits and citrus that was in the nose. There is a moderate presence of tangerine, mango, and passionfruit, along with lighter notes of papaya and apricot. At the same time there is a showing of a herbal and light vegetal hop taste, along with notes of grapefruit and white bread. As the taste advances the sweeter flavors initially get a bit stronger, only to again fade more toward the end of the taste profile. At the same time the hops danken a bit as more herb and vegetal tastes join in, leaving one with a moderately malty, but overall quite pleasant taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is middle of the road in thickness and creaminess as well as with respects to carbonation. Overall, the feel is good for the dank and malty tastes, all while keeping it an easier drinking brew.
Overall – A pretty nice hazy IPA that isn’t overly sweet or malty, but has a pretty decent balance and a nice, none standard hop profile. Nothing that blows you out the water, but certainly worth a try for sure.

16oz can from Geissler's grocery store. Golden pour, light haze, paper thin white head. Ligh citrus aroma, grapefruit. Taste is citrus, grapfruit, hint of lemon, touch of pineapple, mild bitterness. Overall kind of a soft feel.

Can from Tfontana, thanks for the opportunity!
Mostly clear deep gold in color with a good sized frothy white head that persists. They are calling this dank but I'm getting more citrus and pith than anything. Light sweet bread to counter. Not bad.

Hazy light orange in the glass with 3 fingers of uneven, soapy white lacing
The first aroma I pick up on is tangerine, along with supporting notes of resiny hops and bright pineapple
The taste is the same as the aroma but muted, the hops coming through in the end of the sip to give it some flavor
Mouthfeel is really soft and carried by considerable carbonation
While the flavor is not exceptional, the feel helps it go down easy, unoffensive and a bit boring, but still not bad
