12 oz can as pictured. Slightly warm big gusher. All over the place with its big foaming rocky head. Sweet almost mild pineapple smell. Taste is very bitter, biting dull kick ass punch in the face. Yes, its 6% but it comes across more like 8. Its offensively on style fer sher just not too delicious for this cheap pale lager lover. If you love IIPA, ignore my numbers, this should be in your bucket list, hehehehheh

12 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours lightly hazy golden amber color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of lemon, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, passionfruit, mango, melon, grapefruit, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/earthy hops and moderate pale malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of big lemon, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, passionfruit, mango, melon, grapefruit, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine, citrus rind, herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, passionfruit, mango, melon, grapefruit, orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance. Slight lingering hop astringency after the finish, but not overwhelming. Moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, sticky/resinous/rindy, and fairly crisp balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is a delicious IPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/earthy hops and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and easy to drink; despite the aggressively bitter/drying finish. Nailed the west coast style intent. Extremely dank/vibrant hop complexity; solid pale malt backbone with no residual sweetness. A very enjoyable offering.

12oz can pours with a clear copper body that has thin golden hued edges and supports a dirty white head of foam. The aroma offers up dusty hops, honey drizzled cantaloupe, spinach and a bit of yeasty earthy gravel. The taste delivers bitter grapefruit wrapped in sweet cantaloupe. The sugar sweetness ramps up just as a modest resiny pine hop and flowery floral hop bitterness emerges. These notes seem fine but the sweetness disrupts the experience.

Can - Pours a hazy gold - nose of damp cereal grains, sweetened citrus, kind of subdued hoppiness - flavor is know no of similar - dull, soggy sweet maltiness, but the hop character is at least fairly bright, vibrant, citric, medium bitter - finish is a bit dull - middle of the road IPA - at least half the breweries in town make better IPA than this.
