12 oz can, thanks brenn79. Aroma is grapefruity, piney, SweeTarts, bready. Pours nearly clear deep gold with a thick off-white pillowy head that laces the glass nicely after it recedes. Taste is as impressive as the aroma. It’s bittersweet, but not too sweet or bitter--it hits that perfect balance that I love in the best IPAs, from Pliny to the new Bale Breaker Citra Slicker. Not sure why this is considered an APA on here. Carbonation is fairly soft, body medium. Excellent.

Clear deep blond to orange beer, creamy off-white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: very fruity, citrus, passion fruit, bit piny, some oranges, some almonds. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: citrus, grapefruit, pineapple, bit sour. Aftertaste: bit sweet, fruity, passion fruit, mango, citrus, bitter hops, bit grassy, soft caramel sweetness. Lovely beer. Drank the other can as well.

22 Oz bottle split at a tasting event. Pours a light golden color with a hoppy grapefruit like aroma. Sweet fruit flavor with a good balancing hop flavor. A ton of mango like flavor here. A little sweet. But overall a solid IPA. Really enjoyed this.

Poured from a 22oz bottle with a bottle date of 09/22/2014. Aroma is very hop forward with a nice citrus character with lots of orange. Moderate tropical fruit note a of mango and passion fruit. Some lighter stone fruit and a hint of that fresh grass character of wet hops. Light cracker malt notes with biscuit and a touch of caramel. Pours a clear golden orange with a medium sized, fairly thick white head. Head displays average retention as it recedes to the edges and a thin film remains on top. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with some cracker and biscuit and faint caramel. Moderate bitterness with moderately high hop character. Lots of citrus with lighter tropical and stone fruit. Medium light fresh hop and resin character. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty nice fresh hop beer with a lot of hop character and a nice light malt backbone. More fruity hop notes than I usually get from wet hopped beers.

Sample at Denver Rare Beer Tasting VI on 10/03/2014. Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head that diminishes steadily. Short strings of lacing. Citrus, hops and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of earthy hops, grapefruit and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hops aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Can - thanks Chris! Shared as the last item of the evening. Pours hazy butterscotch, small off-white head, decent lacing. Aroma is really really nice, citrus, pine, passionfruit a bit of dankness for good measure. Bursts out of the glass and takes over your nose. Flavor isn’t quite there, but still very solid. Very light sweet, light bitter. A bit light on the body. Really really good.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very skunky, with loads of herbal, pot-like hops and some doughy malt. Flavour is very fresh, full of skunky, herbal hops, some pot, and a bit of doughy malt to back without really influencing the flavour. Well-crafted and highly drinkable. Surprised me that this is classified as an APA, not IPA.

Bottle thanks to Scott. Pours a near clear orangish amber with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of grape fruit with some passion fruit and light grain. Flavor starts with light pine with sweet grains but has a good amount of passionfruit.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours golden amber with a foamy beige head. Lush floral aroma. Med body. Flavor is orange/apricot. Which moves on to show some floral. Marvelously fresh and fruity. Very nice.
