Can. Nose is is malty, rye, tropical, pineapple, hint of lime. Taste is rye, leading to mango, slight dank, peach, pineapple, big honey in the very sweet finish. Caramel, apricot, a little pepper from the booze, hint of hazelnut and brown sugar and marmalade. Mouthfeel is creamy and full. The first red IPA I've loved.

2 month old can from mixed 15 A: Poured hard to a 1 head of tan bubbly foam and clear tea colored body. Very good retention. S: Underripe oranges, honeysuckle and thick caramel. T: Heavy on orange citrus and earthy hops. Light alcohol lends a triple sec aspect. Malts are sweet but not overly. Nicely balanced actually and not nearly as boozy as expected. M: Full bodied with soft but active carbonation and oily finish. O: Way too strong for me but with the mix come the ticks right?. I like it much more than I expected or honestly wanted to. Very nice.
