Catching up on some notes
Can shared by Dave, thanks for the hookup.
Hazy deep yellow in color with a thin white head. Its an odd mix of fruit and sunscreen that really doesn't work for me.

Poured from a 16 oz can into a tulip glass.
Pours a hazy, near opaque orange color with 2 fingers of soapy off-white head. The head leaves in a hurry, leaving some sticky lacing behind. Settles into a thin film.
The aroma brings notes of pineapples, grapefruit, and oranges followed by some toasted almonds and coconut.
The flavor is, um... interesting. Coconut and orange juice followed by some grapefruit and pineapple. Finishes slightly nutty and rindy.
The feel is medium bodied with pretty good carbonation. Crisp and refreshing.
Overall, an interesting IPA. It's not bad, but the coconut flavor is a bit too strong for me. It's decently balanced and refreshing, but not at all worth the price.

Pours a very cloudy orange with a decent head. Remind me of what an orange milkshake would look like. Smell is coconut. Taste is a very smooth slightly bitter coconut. Other fruits are present. Feel is excellent. I have to admit - the coconut surprised me in a pleasant way. This is a wonderful beverage that shows that thinking outside the box occasionally works very well. Go get some of this.

Poured on draft into a 16 oz Snulip at the source and got a 2 plus finger head that leaves thin streaks of lace behind.
Smell starts with coconut, pineapple, passionfruit, and grapefruit and maybe a hint of the almonds also used to brew this beer.
Taste follows coconut, pineapple, passionfruit, and just a kiss of grapefruit in the very balanced finish.
Mouthfeel is soft with plenty of life, not dry but sticky from the huge amount hops, and easy drinking at 6.5% but drinks bigger in flavor.
Overall this is just excellent and would love to crush this out at a beach or on a boat.
