Pint can acquired from a NY retailer fairly recently. I like the label, minimalist and colorful, as in asking, what kind of beer is this? A triple IPA. And now we know. I have a globe glass, one of my oldest in my rating times, in place. The body is amber-orange carrying a head of light khaki tan foam. The smell is ripe with hops, a touch of citrus and sweetness. Unsurprisingly, the taste has a lot of oranges in it, pulp and peel both, candy, a minimal amount of lemons but enough to show up, cane syrup, pineapple and field. I cannot say that I have had a similar IPA before, this one is unique. I find it tasty. The high ABV is totally covered, let us see what that brings later. I think I got lucky on selecting this beer.

Can at home. Rich deep golden and hazy with a white head. Aroma and taste are fruity and pine some sweetness. Rich full body.

In the can aromas are dry resin with a bit of citrus. In the glass goes to ripe stonefruit, floral with resin and citrus at the edges. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, more sweet than bitter, with marshmallows and overipe stonefruit. Full bodied and ok carbonation.
Blood orange, grated orange skin, almost resinous, bitter and boozy finish. Balance could be better. Not as good as I expected it to be. Rating is very high, so maybe a bad can?

Pint can pours with a modestly hazy dirty copper colored body that has thin golden hues and supports a nice off white head of foam. The aroma seems a lot like the Double Orange Starfish . . . and that's ok. I get a blend of pineapple, tangelo and then a modestly booze infused fruity cantaloupe to berry note. The taste delivers orange sherbet and tangelo leading to softer sweeter pineapple and cantaloupe. Like the Double version this attains a decent balance of hefty soft sweet tropical fruitiness and just enough citrus hop tanginess keeping this from running aground. Overall the abv is well hidden under all the fruity hoppiness.

Pours deep hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white head with little retention recedes to mottle surface. Mango and pineapple aromas. Thick with hot maple, tangerine and berries upfront turning to hot honey and golden syrup in the hot lasting finish.

Gold with a medium sized foamy white head. Tangy and sweet with citrus and a bit of white wine. Long finish. Medium body.

Panda 🐼 at home big thanks to Wingman. A almost clear deep orange coloured pour with a halo of white head. Aroma is semi sweeet, sticky orange, weedy, grass, tangerien, funky dank, sweaty pine. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, sticky hop, sap, orange rind, chewy hops, warming alcohol, almond milk, creamy. Palate is chewy , creamy, mellow carbonation, big boost but lacks the pay off.
