710ml can. Gift from my wife. Pours a slightly hazy orange gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of bready wheat malt, orange, lemon zest, peach and green tea. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, apricot, mango, overripe pineapple and lemongrass in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Good, but not picking up much nelson sauvin.

I found a huge can, 24 oz, at Circle K on Route 66 in Williams, AZ in late May. The new trend these days I guess, big IPAs sharing cooler space in convenience stores with malt liquors. My favored snifter is prepared for the pour, a semi-transparent yellow-gold liquid sporting a pillowy head of ice white foam. A decent, traditional smell of lots of hops, pine and yellow fruit. The taste is softer but all right. Still plenty hoppy, pine, a caramel sweetness, malt, honeydew and grapefruit. A nice IPA, lots of it to drink which I do with the ones I like.

Hazy, dullish pale amber with a thick head. Has a bright galaxy aroma, and a fair bit of bitterness. Stone fruit and a bit of nelson. It's not a bad hop expression here. Malts are ok, good enough.
