Canned 7/4/25. ABV 8.0%.
S: Pours an opaque yellow with a short creamy off-white head. Thin irregular lacing.
S: Aromas of orange, pineapple, and fruit smoothie.
T: Citrus up front, followed by some tropical and stone fruits. Finishes dry with some grapefruit bitterness. No alcohol heat.
F: Medium mouthfeel. Medium to low carbonation. A bit peppery.
O: Tropical and citrusy, but doesn't distinguish itself like some other Fidens brews. Very good nonetheless.

Overall, a marvelous DIPA, just exceptional.
