7.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: pale yellow cloudiness with a finger's worth of frothy white head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet piney to lemony to tangerine and orangey hop tones; light clean malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to juicy bittersweet quality; finishes leaning into a mixed citrusy, piney and super subtle orange tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness, nice low carb, low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: nicely done single hop IPA I would return to.

Canned 2/16/18, drunk 3/23/18 at The Archives.
Turbid AF. Maize-bronze-canary. White head is small, somewhat dense, sitting lightly at cover.
Smells like doughy yeast with a big helping of tangy orange, tangerine and overripe lemon. Biscuity malts arrive on the end, though there's not intense juiciness/sweetness that needs balancing here. It's very spicy and you can definitely get a good sense of the Galaxy which is quite nicely done. No alcohol, though just a touch of light pine lingering.
In the mouth it's a lovely display of Galaxy. Dry, a bit thin of texture, but an excellent display of the hop's flavor and spice. Does incorporate a little scallion in there too, which doesn't really bother me, but individual results may certainly vary. Soft, malty, with low, somewhat loose-at-times carbonation.

16 oz. can. Appearance is a pale grapefruit juice in a snifter. Nose is white bread, pineapple, grapefruit, and kumquat. Taste shows me light dankness in the hops, tangerine, grapefruit pith, pineapple pulp and subtle pine needle. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying texture with a solid grapefruit rind bitterness. Solid Single hopped IPA.

16oz Can from the local store. I don't see a date so I hope it's fresh. lightly hazy orange. smells and tastes close to a graham cracker chewy walnut and bread-like dough flavor with a lot of grapefruit acid skin. It's not bad actually. There's a chemical astringency at the end with some table sugar.
