Can from Rakuten. Pyramid Outburst IPA 7% Opaque amber-orange with a thick dense light beige head of foam that definitely lingers around. The aroma is candyish citrus sweet tarts and malt sweet caramel. The beer is quite full bodied with a significant sweetness to it. The beer has pithy grapefruit and tangerine notes, fairly bitter but pretty balanced. The flavor profile is much less complex than I expected but it is overall a more satisfying beer than the disappointing Full Sail. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

From a can. Nose is quite citrusy, more like Fanta (not so sweet though) than a beer, lots of citrus peel character, not too pungent but still feels a bit like shandy. Taste has some malt base and then bursting with citrus and citric bitterness. Not the greatest balance and hops are not really there, adjuncts making this beer what it is. Drinks easy as expected but overall not really what I was hoping for. Below average beer, just with lots of citrus peels added.

12 oz can poured, after enjoying a couple out of the can from the six pack under the sun last weekend. A good beer for either occasion. Darker copper orange pour. Citrus juicy aroma, some malt bite, and a slight sweet indicator. Flavor is a pleasant bitter grapefruit throughout. A bite to it. A sturdy malt backbone. Flavorful, and pleasant drinking IPA here. A little different than a typical offering. Good, inexpensive six pack to pair with the summer weather.

Can split at James’s, thanks to Endo, 01/07/17. Golden copper with a decent off white head. Nose is tangerine, melon, orange peel, toasted bread, Taste comprises caramel malts, bread dough, light grapefruit, citric tinged straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with modest hop bitterness. Old skool IPA ... nothing I’d look to revisit.

Ok, but too malty and sweet for me
