OK, another stupid ass bastard of ten thousand voodoo rangers??? Hate this shit! Not VD in general but IPA that is, LoL. Make fifteen thousand of the same thing? Pop the lid and what? Mild barely detectable hop perfume, not a bad olfactory. Drank right out of the can and I suppose its golden pale with a white head as stated in the previous rating. Yea, its bitter as all hell but it seems to be a little more controlled in the taste bud rototiller department compared to other IPA of this genre. Yes, right out of the can the co2 seems to be making it a little more tolerable. Going down fairly easy and the 6.7 seems to be well hidden. Yea, maybe I can appreciate this stuff? IDK? Go figger, its beer, and it aint too bitter. For an IPA, I may be losing it. Is it that I drank it right out of the can or is this just a decent IPA, not sure. I probably may have maturing taste buds? NO WaY! My buds are getting grey hair? WAY!

12 oz. can. Pours a dark, hazy, yellow-ish color, with a big, foamy, off-white head. The aroma is mango, cinnamon, lime zest, and dry grass. Sweet and a bit citrusy, with a mellow bitterness. Light and a bit acidic. Fair.

Pour is a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is mango and pineapple. Flavor is is mango and some lemon. Is the added mango and spice a little artificial. Probably but I'm a uscker for mangoes so you got me there. Decent fruity IPA.
