16 fl. oz. can without production codes or freshness dating

Look: Moderately hazy golden/amber body beneath a finger-thick head of frothy then rocky off-white. Very-good-plus head retention with some impressive lacing.
Smell: Floral
Taste: Caramelish malt and floral, resinous, and lightly citrusy hops. It's also a touch spicy but I can't determine whether or not that's from hops or alcohol, but being listed at 5.4% ABV I'm inclined to believe it's the former. A solid bitterness backs it and it finishes dry with earthy, spicy, and herbal notes lingering.
Feel: Medium bodied and gently crisp then smooth across the palate.
Overall: Fortunately lacking any of the stronger chlorophyll notes that wet hopped beers can have, but also lacking in aroma and flavor as compared to many examples. Still, a solid IPA that deserves a try.

Two finger head, just off white, lots of dimpling with average retention, the lacing tends to form sheet which slowly slide down into the glass. There’s cloudiness throughout the glass, deepens the yellow-orange hue, nothing unique about the level of visible carbonation. The nose has a pleasant airiness which downplays the sweetness of the tangerine, honey and pine sap notes, the florality never quite fully catches, the leafiness is clean and not dank, more potting soil than damp earth, peach and apple fruit, its simplicity is its strength. Medium-bodied, creamy in texture and on the sweet side, towards the end your mouth starts to pucker but not because of a distinct bitterness. Big jolt of caramel here to anchor the tangerine to mandarin orange citrus. Subdued pine and flowers, some accents of crackers and tar. The leafiness more dank here but still generally clean and fresh. The carbonation is unobtrusive with a steady fluffiness. As in the nose there’s not a lot of distinct fruit, more a general mix of white pit fruit and apples. On the whole it’s easy drinking and keeps you interested too.

Appearance: pours a hazy orange color with a 2" head that slowly falls. Moderate lace develops.
Smell: some soft earthy tones come through to the nose.
Taste: caramel, orange, some grapefruit, some grassy tones, and an earthy bitterness rounds it out.
Mouthfeel: medium bodied beer. Crisp to start, less crisp and a bit dry late.
Overall: a decent wet hopped IPA that can satisfy your craving for one.
