From the bottom of the can: "PKGD:060823 1113 003608"

Appearance: It has a pale gold colored body with a good deal of haze. It's still possible to see through the beer but it's hard to make out any text. There are a ton of suspended solids in the beer. It has a short white head which is somewhat fluffy. It has a bit of head retention, keeping a slightly shorter version of the already short head over the top of the beer. It doesn't form much in the way of lacing.

Aroma: It has a very light aroma of mango and then alcohol pops in to take over. The mango returns each time the nose gets close to the beer. It's an alright smelling beer but the overall aroma is faint.

Taste: It has some mango and a touch of papaya up front. Towards the middle there is a bit of honeydew melon flavor. Some alcohol comes through which gets even stronger if the beer is consumed without any kind of palate cleanser. It has a bit of a peach flavor near the back of the palate and in the aftertaste which is nice. The flavors are good but mellow.

Mouthfeel: It is soft and easy to drink. There is an alcohol presence in the flavor and aroma of the beer but it doesn't hinder the drinking experience. The label on the can states that this is "9% ALC/VOL" and it feels lower than that which helps drinkability. There is a low hop bitterness.

Overall: The label on the can states that this is a "COLLABORATION DIPA WITH OUR BUDS AT ZILLICOAH IN WOODFIN, NC" and that it is made with "AZACCA, ELDARODO AND STRATA." It drinks a lot like a Double New England IPA, with a lighter and softer body that also has a low overall bitterness. As a whole the beer is pretty good. It doesn't have a ton of aroma or flavor but it's still a pleasant drinking beer. I would probably buy it again if I could get it on tap at the brewery where it might be fresher than the can I had. I would still recommend giving it a shot but only as a single can or pour.
