Poured from the can into a nonic(k) pint glass.

Pale straw color with quite a bit of haze. Creamy and large fistfull forming bright white head on top. Lots of staying power. Light lacing with very fine bubbles.

Spritzy citrus notes of lime and lemon, with a good hint of zesty citrus oil to go with it on the nose. Hop angle provides some dank touches as well giving a varied hop aroma and a quite dominant one at that.

The palate is to style. Light bodied but just a hint of malt girth that doesn't make the beer too wet and provides just a little sweet backbone. Crispy malt bill with an almost soda palate and good hop citrus oily bitterness on first sip. Cracker dry almost champagne like which is a nice neat touch on the finish.

Definitely like that this isn't a weak and typical hop water session IPA, but certainly flirts with being in a bit of high abv territory.

 

Hazy straw colored body under a large white head that faded as fast as poured without leaving any lacing. Aroma of tropical fruit with a bit of citrus, especially grapefruit. Soft, fruit dominated flavor. Solid malt backbone adds stability. Modestly carbonated, light bodied mouthfeel. Not much in the way of bitterness. If you're a fan of the style you will probably like this offering.

Pale yellow appearance with a fizzy loose head that dissipates quickly. Lemon, grapefruit, star fruit, mild pine. Light body, moderate carbonation. Lovely session, refreshing.

 

Hazy pale yellow, white head, decent retention, spotty lace
Tropical fruit and pine nose
Citrus, mango, blueberry, a bit of cereal malt flavor
Light bodied, fluffy, lower carbonation
Not for me.

Great beer! Poured from a can into glass. Pale and slightly hazy. Great aroma and mouth feel, slightly citrus. Not much head to speak of, but it was persistent. Will go back for more.
