From the bottom of the can: "CANNED ON 07/27/20 ENJOY 10/25/20"
Appearance: The body of the beer is a very cloudy and mostly opaque beige-orange color. The head is large, white, and frothy with good head retention.
Aroma: There is very little aroma to the beer. There is a very faint hint of pine but it takes a large draw from the nose to pull that in.
Taste: Sweet caramel flavor comes through up front with a bit of a butterscotch character. There is a bit of pine character and a bit of mint. There is also a hint of sourness to the beer and a touch of alcohol.
Mouthfeel: It is smooth and light feeling but it has a medium body and a light bit of tartness. Mild bitterness. It's an odd feeling beer.
Overall: The can call this "LOTUS JUICY IPA ORANGE | VANILLA | TROPICAL." It doesn't feel juicy or tropical at all. It tastes piney and minty with notes of caramel and butterscotch. The beer obviously didn't meet the intent of the brewer and for that reason alone I would not recommend it. It is drinkable and it does have flavor, but it feels like a total mess. I wouldn't buy it again.

From the pint can, it pours a hazy amber with a hint of orange and a nice thick white head that slowly diminishes to a thin layer and lacing. In the nose, it is citrus, possibly with a touch of vanilla. In the mouth, the same - definite citrus, possibly orange, and a hint of vanilla to round it out. Nice IPA!
