16oz can, adhesive label. No dating information found.
Clear, pale gold colored body. One finger of fine bubble, white colored head, and this persists as a full cap. Leaves behind scattered spots and short lines of lacing.
Aroma of dank pine resin, plus citrus and tropical fruit.
Taste has the flavors of orange, grapefruit, and pineapple, but is especially strong with dank pine resin and bud. Sweet toasted malts provide support. The dankness rules in the aftertaste.
More than medium mouthfeel. Slight syrup for texture. Bitterness is noticeable and comes from the dank hops. Good carbonation.
The dankness is strong with this one. West Coast style IPA.

From Good Times Oakland, canned November 7th.

It pours a clear pale gold with a small head of foam, very good retention and lacing.

The smell is big notes of pine, some tropical fruit that brings dankness, smells juicy with a backdrop of toasted malt.

The taste is lovely notes of pine that are very assertive. Followed by light tropical fruit that brings some dankness. The malt presence seems to be the toast that I mentioned in the smell.

Medium bodied with medium carbonation, this is a very good WCIPA, imho. I would drink this again.

 

Can pour - clear gold straw color, short white head, frosty lacing. Nose is mildly dank and grassy. Taste follows with hints of pine and a bit of citrus. Finishes slightly dry.
