[12oz can from Total Wines, Brea, CA at 6.8% ABV.] A bright pale amber pour with a loose white head; tropical fruit aroma; tropical fruit taste; with a grapefruit finish. Soft in the mouth and very drinkable.

$2 can from vintage estate. A slightly deeper yellow than pale. Big foam y head, more than half of glass is foam, even with a gentle pour. Head goes craggy, unrelenting. Smell is typical rough volatile IPA. First tate is all IPA, bitter nasty resinous mouth coating chewing on green grapefruit rinds mixed with pine tar. What else can be said? Its just another of a million typically ubiquitous IPA that treads into double imperial IPA territory. IPA, the beer with a preservative in it. Rude mah-fah.

355ml can on 14th July 2018, sat in my brothers front garden while taking in the afternoon sun down in Devon. Lager like in appearance, clear golden with a fast fading white head. Citrus/tropical fruits rule the aroma and taste, very hop centric throughout.

Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can, canned on August 4, 2017, poured into a glass at WOB Baltimore. Hazy golden with medium white head. Aroma is herbal hops/citrus hops, medium body, and good small-bubble lacing. Taste is herbal hops, some citrus hops, and bitter finish. A ten month old IPA was not what I had in mind, but the beer was not that bad.
