Can from a supermarket somewhere on my Oregon trip. Nicely tropical fruity aroma with fruity hops, grapefruit, malt, and pine resin. Medium bitter flavour with a mild malty resinous sweetness. Body is medium. An all-round tasty example of an IPA done right.

Can from Tanakaya, I think. Aroma gives lots of pine and some tropical fruit. Peach maybe there along with pineapple. Taste is good. Initial hoppy bitterness, feels fruitier than the malt in the aroma would suggest. Tropical stuff again, orange, pretty nice stuff. Easy drinking. Nice!

16 oz can purchased as a single at the Made in Oregon shop at the Portland, Oregon airport. Canned 11/02/18 per bottom of can. The pour is a slight haze golden orange with a noisy off white one inch head that falls slow with lace. The aroma is dank resin with a dry leaf freshness. The taste is the nose, dank resin dry up front, moves to malt grain and finishes with mineral and a touch of earth. The palate is medium bodied with soft natural carbonation and the dry finish. Easy drinking IPA.

16 oz can poured. A lighter golden yellow pour. Oily fizz head. Some orange fruit, tropical, juicy, but bitter. Lingering pine. Hints of red vines, which i cant really explain. A subtle sweetness. Interesting.

Can from Caps & Taps. It pours a nice light orange color with a small off white head. The aroma is very dank with some pineapple and peach. Maybe a hint of onion and grass behind it all. The flavor is bready and snappy on the palate, although not super potent with the hop character. Nice peach, mango and pineapple notes and not as much onion as in the aroma thankfully. Definitely a little dank though, especially in the finish. Low to medium bitterness. Needs a bit more hop flavor, but still an enjoyable beer.

hazy light amber color. Soft hoppy nose of apples, oranges and a bit of strawberries. Big malty, slightly sweet mouth with noticable earthiness and soft hops. Lingering apple pie in the finish. Very pnw take on an India pale ale. Decent
