Stupid huge can. Pours a bright amber with moderate head. Aromas of dank hops, spicy tropical fruit, citrus and toasted malts. Flavors follow same. Lots of candied and spicy tropical fruit with pineapple leading. Additional resin. Quite nice put points off for the huge can relative to the ABV.

19.3 oz. can, pours a hazy bright golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out resinous and piney hops, some candied stone fruits, and toasted caramel bready malt. Flavour is moderately malty, with plenty of resinous hops, caramel malt, bready malt, and piney notes. Balanced well, with just enough sweetness to balance the good hop content. Very good.

Can from Nugget Market in Woodland, CA. Pours brassy gold with a monstrous foamy beige head. Aroma of strong citrus/pine/resin. Med body or better. Flavor is mildly sweet malt supporting a lot of grapefruit/pine. It is resiny. Qualifies for dank I'd say. Bitter but not destructively so. Excellent flavor.

2023-11-21, stovepipe can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 9/13/2023, just 2 months old, 8-4-8-4-16=40
Hazy dark blond colour. Fruity aroma, tropical, slightly dank. Full bodied, light residual sweetness; juicy, delicate malts; juicy hopping, from oranges, to bitter oranges, grapefruit, candied pineapple; correct bitterness, with a good bitter bite in the finish. Very good.

Blond colour, just some chill haze, nice head. The aroma is piney, with some bredy notes. The mouthfeel is light and off-dry, and the flavour is mild, crackery, bready; this is an excellent malt base and mouthfeel for a modern IIPA; the hop appears to be mostly piney, not as dank as promised; the bitterness is balanced, and there is some gentle alcohol warmth.
It just needs to be brighter, to be almost perfect; but also as-is, it's excelent, and modern.

19.2 oz can from Boise Co-op. Coudy golden pour, lasting white foamy head, steaky lacing. Aroma is citrus, notes of onion, lemon. Taste begins with some pillowy pale malts, then the hops crash the party, citrus, pine, light dankness. Very mild bitter finish for the ABV. Smooth
