500mL can, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very sweet, with lots of caramel bready malts, candied sugars, and light resinous hops. Flavour brings out an odd hop variety, with various tropical fruits, and piney and resinous hops in a weird balance, cereal notes and candied sugar. Too sweet for me, but not bad. It's okay.

Poured from a 16oz can. Aroma is very hop forward with lots of tropical fruit, citrus and some lighter dank and resinous notes. Lots of pineapple, papaya, mango, orange and apricot. Some lighter pine notes and a faint garlic, onion notes. Light cracker malt notes with a touch of wheat and bread. Pours fairly hazy, but not nearly as murky as other Hoof Hearted beers. Hold on color with a medium large, thick, white head that shows good retention as it slowly recedes to the edges. Medium lacing and small legs. Flavor is moderately grainy with some cracker and wheat notes and a faint sweetness. Medium high bitterness. Fairly strong hop flavors, but less so than in the aroma. Quite a bit of pineapple, papaya and orange with faint apricot and pine. Less dank notes than in the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice IPA. Lots of grain character with good hop notes. Very fruity with a light dank and pine note that helps cut the fruit character. Good grain backbone that doesn’t overpower.

Sample at Grandview Digfest on 06/11/2016. The beer is a clear golden-bronze color with a medium foamy white head that recedes steadily to a film. Stringy lacing. Aroma of tropical fruit, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, pine, green onion and earthy malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
