Poured from a can into a pint glass. Pours copper red with a small white head. Smells of citrus and floral hops. Tastes of citrus with nice floral notes. Beer is light bodied and easy drinking, good carbonation. Overall, a very good beer.

I got a couple of cans of this beer from a mixed 12pck that I bought at the Woodman's in Onalaska, Wisconsin. It poured a hazy golden with white head that is not leaving much lace. The scent had subtle dank mango notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with mild sweet malt base with bitter pineapple and apricot presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

12oz can into a 12oz tulip.
L: Pours a perfect caramel amber with some yeasty cloudy sediment at the end of the pour. Thin white head that recedes with some random lacing.
S: Pungent big mango, papaya, pineapple, orange, tangerine and kiwi. Super tropical nose.
T: Caramel, sweet hops, sweet malts. It has low bitterness and very light random alcohol as the beer warms. Bread malts at the end. It is clean tasting.
F: Mouthfeel is clean and medium-bodied with a moderately fast finish. It is rather rich, semi-juicy, fairly smooth and not drying.
O: This DDH DIPA has very little bitterness at all. It is well balanced and not overly sweet. Fairly malty tasting for it's ABV and style. It is relatively easy drinking and excellent.

Pours a fairly clear golden color. When poured from the tap there's a bit of white frothy head. Retention is so so. The head does cling to the side of the glass.
The nose is rich and full of hops. Mango and grapefruit.
Taste - the hop starts off mellow and slowly kicks in more. It doesn't get too harsh or abrasive. It is more of a citrus hop.
Smooth body. Slightly creamy.
Solid IIPA.
