Thanks SawDog505 for this can!
A - Hazy / opaque dark orange tan colored pour with nice sticky lacing. Carbonation is very low to almost none.
S - Nectarine, apricot, some spiciness, and resiny pine notes.
T - Resiny pine and light citrus. Ends with a lingering resiny citrus and pine, moderate bitterness.
M - Big medium body and very gentle carbonation. Very dry finish on top of the tongue.
O - A rock solid IPA. Recommended.

Poured on draft into a 16 oz snifter. Pours a fairly cloudy orange with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves loads of thin lace behind.
Smell is papaya, pine resin, hard candy, and grapefruit rind.
Taste follows more tropical than most WCIPA, with some bitterness that lingers on the palate a bit.
Mouthfeel is about medium, plenty of life, but a softer feel than the style, not dry but a tad sticky from al the hops, and goes down easy but goes down bigger than 6.5% ABV.
Overall I really like it, they could kick up the bitterness a bit, but I do like it plenty.
