Sample at The Source (as v1). The beer is a hazy golden color with a medium bright white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Strings of lace. Aroma of herbal hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with a resiny hops character and notes of grapefruit and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a citrusy hoppy aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Can from Holiday Market, canned on 9/11/2019. Pours a hazy deep gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates instantly. Punchy grapefruit, mango and pineapple aromas on the nose with some faint booze. Malts feel a bit stale on the palate, but some nice ruby red grapefruit and citrus zest that comes out. A bit of rind and pith and pine on the finish.

Can - V1 - no idea if this is really where this rating belongs - the entries for this beer are a clusterfuck, so I'm guessing they're all eventually going to be under here anyway - super cloudy pour - nose of dull citrus - flavor is muddy but sharp, finishing with pithy citrus - not bad, just indistinct and sharp - I grow weary of these kinds of IPAs.
