Can. pale amber color. Grapefruit in the piney grassy aroma. Some malty, nutty notes next to the massive grassy citric hopbitterness. Grassy, earthy citric finish with peppermint. Firmly hopped, delicious IPA.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, best before 2/5/2016. Pours slightly hazy orange/amber color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, mango, apricot, pineapple, papaya, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, light caramel, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Fantastic aromas with awesome balance and complexity of bright/dank citrus/tropical/earthy hops and light-moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, mango, apricot, pineapple, papaya, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, light caramel, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Large amount of pine/citrus rind/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, apricot, mango, lemon/orange rind, pepper, pine, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of bright/dank citrus/tropical/earthy hops and light-moderate bready malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance and zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Good amount of dryness from bitterness as well, that increases through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, sticky/resinous, and slightly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a light warmth lingering after the finish. Overall this is an incredible IPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of bright/dank citrus/tropical/earthy hops and light-moderate bready malt flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink. A highly enjoyable offering.

500mL can, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma and flavour brings out piney hops, crackery malt, and some bready notes. Dry, piney and somewhat bitter. Well-balanced and thirst-quenching. Very good.

16 oz can poured into a tulip-style pint glass. Thanks to my friend Ed for the trade. Best by 6/1/2015. Clear golden yellow with 4 fingers of beige head. Aromas of biscuit, aged hops, malt. Tastes of biscuit, malt, light citrus, floral notes, aged hops. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Seems past prime despite the best by date.

Can from Bigtreebrewing, thanks for the opportunity. Slight chill hazy in a deep golden liquid topped by a good sized off white head that persists. big citrus and pine on the nose with a solid hit of fruity caramel maltiness. Light juicy fruit and dankness round us out nicely. Nice ipa, a bit dry in the finish. I could drink these without too much hesitation.

Can bought in the US by a colleague. (thansk Wolff) Clear light amber with a medium fluffy white head. Fresh aroma of resin, grapefruit, some pineapple and biscuits. Similar taste. On the sweet side and with a bitter finish.
