This full-bodied, hazy double IPA is Citra-hopped with a juicy combination of mango, orange, and pineapple flavors finishing with a grapefruit aroma and ferocious bite.

Can thanks to Virby44. Cheers! Murky yellow with a frothy, white head. Big pineapple aroma. Resin and candy underneath. Taste is bitter the whole way through. Lingering, dry bitterness at the finish. Medium bodied, prickly carbonation. Good, but not exceptional.

Can, canned 05/20/21. Color: Very hazy milky orange, white head. Aroma: Grassy and bit pine hop, subtle citrus and tropical fruit. Taste: Over moderate to medium bitterness, dank, grassy / wet grass and pine, fruity mango, orange, pineapple, tangerine and stone fruit notes. Wheat malt background. Light sweetness. More bitterness, somewhat less fruity and a bit resinous and dank at long lasting and dry-ish finish. Medium body, average carbonation. I like the 'original' bitterness that's missing in a lot of nowadays (NE)IPA's. Very nice

Short lived foamy white head left a spotty cover on a hazy pale gold body. Mango, nectarine & hoppy aroma. Medium to full bodied, smooth & soft on the tongue with a nicely carbonated clean back. Mango, peach, grape, sweet citrus & minty tastes with a long tangy finish. So tasty.

From a 473ml can on 12/5/2021. Pours a a slightly hazy medium golden with a smallish head. The nose is primarily sweet citrus with some light tropical notes. Tastes of mango, orange and melon, with a zesty lemon/grapefruit bitterness which is firmish for the style, but balances out the sweet fruit beautifully. The mouthfeel is a touch silky, the carbonation moderate. Super harmonious and simply delicious. An outstanding beer.
