Received a can from @jzeilinger 4-24-26. No can date but Jeff says 3-26-26; consumed 5-23-26. Cold stored since acquisition. Thanks for the opportunity, Jeff!

Beer poured deep gold, almost orange, with a nice white head that has great hang time.

Nose has notes of doughy malts, citrus, and floral hops.

Taste is a doughy bread forward leaning malt base in which the Mosaic shines thru on the back end with a nice resiny finish, 7/10 on my bitterness scale. Getting some orange and grapefruit up front. Finishes like a good old school WCDIPA.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied and smooth.

Overall, dig the old school approach, nicely done!

Canned on: 3-26-26

A - Dark gold pour with nice clarity, vibrant carbonation, and dense white lacing.

S - Tropical fruit, berry, apricot, some spice, mangos.

T - Same as the nose. Starts with some tropical fruit up front with resiny apricot, some berry, a little bit os spice, and ends with an assertive resiny pine presence that lingers on the palate with spicy fruit settling in underneath.

M - Big medium body with prickly carbonation fighting through the thickness. The hops coat the mouth with a cotton-like sensation.

O - A nice hop forward IPA that's easy drinking.

I tried a pint of this beer off the tapper at Local Roots in Powell, Ohio. It poured a hazy orangish with white head that left some lace. The scent and taste had tropical citrus fruit notes and presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.
