16oz can into a pint glass. No freshness dating.
Thick hazy yellow body. Small white head, scattered lacing. Dull stone fruit aroma. Taste is quite hoppy, suggests dry hopping. Juiciness is low, light mixed tropical fruit. Finish is clean, and quite warming. Overall, a decent dipa, but judging by previous reviews, the fruitiness has dropped off quite a bit.

T - Fruity from start to finish with citrus, pineapple, passion fruit, stone fruit, and some alcohol presence.

Poured into a grip shaped goblet: color is hazy/murky gold, head is off white and presents 1/2 inch thick and then dissipates to solid top, some lacing on the glass sides.
Smell is notable tropical fruitiness, a bit more emphatic than most NT hazies: notes of sweeter pineapple, mixed tropical fruits, berry and lime, lighter citric note and light nectarine.
Taste is more bitter and biting from the strength, less sweet: notes of mixed tropicals, citric acid, nectarine like flavor, notable alcoholic estery note and biting pithiness from the hops.
Mouthfeel is low carbonation, moderate sweetness, moderate bitterness, lingering pithy/boozy dryness.
Overall a bit more aroma out of this than some recent DHIPAs from NT but strong pithy/boozy flavor/feel notes overtake.
