12 oz. can. Pours an unclear, anemic, pale yellow color, with a medium sized, white head. The nose is dry grass, chardonnay, quinine, lime peel, and green banana. A bit sweet, with a sharp, drying bitterness. Light ot medium body, with a sharp, astringent mouthfeel. This is quite dry and interesting. Quality, if a bit aggressive.

Got in a trade with beergoot. 12 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and moderate pale malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine, cracker, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy/sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.2%. Overall this is an excellent Brut IPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and fairly crisp/clean/refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Nicely soft, not aggressive or overly bitter. Feels like Galaxy, Mosaic, Citra. Extremely juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops; with a great clean pale malt backbone. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp drying. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive spot on style example.
