Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark orangey to amber color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: pineapples, oranges, other citrusy semi-pulpy-like character; light earthy/grassiness further down in there with a nice clean maltiness
Flavor: bittersweet through the prior noted aromas; mild aftertaste of the pineapples, oranges and other citrusy notes
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability about it, some smoothness along tongue but also some hop abrasion (nothing overly bearing); finishes with the pineapples and oranges
Overall: pretty good AIPA I could come back to.

Can from AJ's. Cloudy dark gold. Nose is pineapple, orange, wheat biscuits. Juicy orange flavor, prickly, peppery, a bit tropical. Soft and silky. Decent but not great.

Can. The label does not mention any ABV or version number, neither the brewery website, but it might be 6.8% since the last version on the website is as such. Pours hazy dark orange, with foamy off-white head, melon-grapefruit aroma, medium carbonation, mildly bitter taste with citrus peel-melon flavor, smooth body, long finish. Very tasty and satisfying.
