Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: stiff murky brown color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: bitter orange rind, sweet mango, light grassy & floral hoppiness, mild cracker malts
Flavor: mostly blends the prior noted aromas together fairly nice but that bitter orange rind seems to want to stay in the lead, mild aftertaste of mangoes and bitter orange rind
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper, bitterness seems to be somewhat invasive on the tongue, finishes with the orange rind bitterness and a touch of mangoes
Overall: the bitterness seems to unbalance this beer enough where I believe a recipe change may be in order for this beer. No date on the can means that's the brewer's fault.

Light dullish orange colored brew. Nose is citrus and some peppery spice. Tastes of grapefruit, pineapple, rock candy, peppery spice and lime. Thin bodied. Refreshing.

The Aromas are Citrus hops, Dust and a little wet grain. Flavors are somewhat like nose, Bitter Sweet with sweet upfront and increasing bitterness in the back of the mouth for the Finish. Okay body with a little alcohol warmth at the end.

Pour is a almost clear golden with a large white head. Aroma is a nice orange and mango hop. Flavor is again an almost intense orange and mango with some guava sneaking in there. Super fruity hop flavors. One of this brewers less hazy IPA's but it still has a big tropical fruit forward hop.
