Can from the Tapa Tower ABC store. Pours gold with a huge foamy off-white head. Aroma is citrus with a pine note. Medium body. Citrus pine with a light roasty malt support. Dry and bitter. Good old school IPA.

Very clear, golden and light amber coloured body with a thin, pure white head, only a centimetre or so tall. Aroma of grass, light tropical fruits and a heavy hand of malts with the caramel and sweetness coming through. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive nutty and malty flavours at first with only a tiny touch of the hops, and in more assertive and bitter nutty and super biscuity flavours towards the end. Aftertaste shows the malts way more than any hops with a bitter, biscuity flavour towards the end and no real hop profile at all, despite being a 'west coast ipa'. Overall, not such a good option for a beer and especially in the style - this was an APA at best, and not a very good one. Nice to try, given that I won't find it back on the mainland, but aside from that - not worth trying to find, especially if you want something hoppy. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from the Food Pantry [express] on Kuhio in Waikiki, Honolulu, O'ahu on 26-December-2018 for US$10,88/six pack sampled the day after arriving to celebrate Christmas here on the Islands, on 27-December-2018.

Tap. Pours clear golden, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma is dank, grapefruit, armpit, tropical. Flavors is light sweet, light plus bitter. Lightish body. Could use some more mouthfeel, but solid.

Poured from 12 fl oz can. Hazy yellow with minimal white head. Mild citrus and pine hops, a bit watery, lacking in overall body and flavour.

Deep clear golden color. Doesn’t look anything like a NE IPA. Good tropical fruit gummy bear and buscuit character in the nose that is fairly sweet. The mouth is pretty lame, it has the body of a regular ipa but bitterness of a NE IPA without any juiciness. Boring
