Can, by way of a trade. Murky gold. Scummy, foamy, off white head. Nose has huge, fresh, grimy, greasy hop. Wow. This is so pungent. Notes of ripe pineapple. On the turn mandarin. Pretty dank and sweaty. Loads of warm weather stone fruits. Just loads of hop. Taste is light, juicy bitter. Malt sweetness comes across tinned and fruity. Soft and creamy mouthfeel. Light and bright. Finish ends up with the juice giving way to a bit of a resiny vibe. Mouthwatering, the whole way through.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated 11/01/2016. Aroma is super hop forward with lots of pineapple, mango and citrus notes. Some green, dank resinous notes balance out the fruit. Light cracker malt and wheat notes. Pours a very hazy, dull orange straw color with a medium sized, moderately thick, white head that recedes fairly quickly to the edges where it lingers in clumps. Medium light lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly to moderately sweet with some light cracker and wheat notes. Medium to medium high bitterness. Nice hop notes with lots of mango, citrus, tropical fruit and pineapple. Moderate dank, resinous, grassy notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice hoppy pale ale. Some sweetness without malt flavors that overwhelm the hops. Could be a bit fruitier in the flavor for my tastes.

Thank you Mathieu87 + PriorL for the effort! Can sampled @ Samson en Geert Bierproef Avond. Fresh - few weeks old. Very hazy creamy citrus with little head. Nose is onion, massive marihuana, most marihuana hop smelling beer I have ever head, smells like certain places in Amsterdam, some diesel hops, explosive. Super dank taste, creamy milkshake IPA but not too thick luckily, thick onion, onion dominates the marihuana a bit in the taste but is still clearly there, stupidly marihuana like, finish is some white grape. Very creamy weed body, onion, diesel hops. Favourite of the 5 hoppy Trillium beers tasted that night. Very nice brew & I am not the biggest fan of Vermont style Milkshake IPA’s. I know that the can says APA but you might just as well clasify this one as an IPA.

Tap at Deciduous Anniversary Party Ugly murky grapefruit juice looking beer. Big grapefruit and citrus on the nose with plenty of sweet bread to back it up. Smells and tastes miles better than it looks. Nice to try but it didn’t move me.

500mL can, sent from wilco (thanks so much, Mike!), pours a cloudy orangey yellow with a small white head. Aroma is super dank, with loads of tropical fruits and dank hops. Flavour is like tropical fruit juice, with lots of mango, pineapple, guava, etc. with lots of citric dank hops. Basically no bitterness on the finish, just lots of dankness and tropical fruitiness. Way too easy to drink. Delicious.

Very cloudy, very pale. Fruity, light orange, a bit yeasty, Sweet front, moderate bitterness, and then there is a deep grapefruit, orange character, maybe a touch of mango. Very nice, pretty refreshing.
