Very hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a very frothy, microfoamed head, about three centimetres tall. Aroma of super dank and almost skunky hops with a lot of resin notes and showing some softer citrus and sweetness towards the end, but the malt scent and light sweetness is noticeable as well. Medium-bodied; Strong pungent dank hop flavours dominate with a nice bitterness from all the alpha acids, but also leaving a touch dry and floral with some of the grassy and perfumey characteristics coming through and finishing with a soft but smooth citrusey and fruit-based sweetness. Aftertaste shows the hops of course, but also a good malt backbone and some stronger bready yeast, with a good balance and a kick of flowers at the tail end. Overall, a nice, hoppy, bitter and flavourful IPA that hits the right notes and has a good set of flavours, just isn't anything entirely special, still not a bad beer of course. That said, it's been a while, but I much prefer Alpha King to this one. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Chicago (Streeterville), Illinois, a few hours ago on 24-June-2020 for US$2,69 sampled in my hotel room, back here in Chicago on 24-June-2020.

Friend brought a can from the US. Pours somewhere between amber and gold. Nice white head. Intense weed in the aroma in combination with tropical fruits. The piney weed aroma definitely sticks out and is fantastic. A very heavy aroma for a Pale Ale.
The taste is less piney than the flavour and the tropical fruits take over. Juicy goodness that is easy to drink but extremely flavourful. Some floral notes as well. Medium carbonation and mouthfeel. A beer I wish that would be way easier to get than what it is.
