57 cl can @ home, bought @ a gas station in Orlando, FL.
Light hazy golden with a white head. Tropical fruit aroma with some resin. Sweet taste with a very pleasing bitter finish. Great IPA.

Strong hop profile, but a classic clean IPA.

Pours gold with a two finger head. It has a citrus and resinous hop aroma. The flavor is citrusy and moderately bitter and struck me as a fairly malty ipa.

Canned. Slightly opaque yellow pour. Citrus, a beautiful bit of body, and other stuff. Unique

12 oz can. Flavor is lightly fruity with mango and mild citrus. Bitterness is a little bit pine like or herb. I drank the straight from the can so I didn’t notice it’s haze. It definitely has an old school feel to it. Which is what I like about it.
