More ice cream-like that i would enjoy. But well brewed, fluffy body, and good bitterness to back it all. Beertemple ams

Ridiculously hazy golden coloured body with a thick, four to five centimetre tall tan head that's microfoamed, very crisp and even slighlty oily on top, covering the deeply (90 per cent) opaque glow nicely. Aroma of citrus fruits, mangoes, malts, wheat, spicey yeast and even a dash of fresh coriander seed and some sweet candy towards the end of the nose - very strong and quite nice. Full-bodied; Very rich malts show at first with a lot of flowers and dryness showing, but almost immediately giving way to the citrus fruits and rich sweetness from mangoes and even candy (starbursts) with a lot of strength throughout, and while the hops are really strong here, the malts more than just hold up the side of the beer - they add to the quality and complexity. Aftertaste is full of flavours, too, especially the rich malts and residual sugar left here, with some candy and full mangoes on display here, as well as orange juice. Overall, a nice ,very rich, deep and fruity IPA with some (not much though) bitterness and a great malt backbone, but even better look for the style. Great to try very fresh from a great store - I'll be looking for more from this brewery in the future! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Siciliano's in Grand Rapids, Michigan on 03-August-2021 for US$3,99, canned on 29-April-2021 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 26-September-2021.

Juicy, sweet, hoppy. Oxidized a bit but in decent shape. Tropical fruit, citrus, a bit resinous. Nice.

(Keg at Sori Taproom, 20220518) The beer poured pale amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grapefruit, tart fruits, malts and passion fruit. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grapefruit, spiciness, malts, spiciness, passion fruit and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, spicy and bitter. A nice hoppy brew with complex fruity notes and good bitter finish.

Sample at Daily Growler Powell. Cloudy pale orange color with a thin white head that dissipates steadily to a film. Short strings of lace. Floral hop, fruit and malt aroma. Medium body with flavors of floral hops, tropical fruit and roast malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Can at home. Hazy yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma is malts, hops, vitrusy and hint of lime. Flavor is similar, with a light to moderately bitter hint. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Useful beer.

Erg nice. Nog redelijk moutig of een vleugje rogge oid, maar dat is niet verkeerd. Verder goede hop, prima bitter, genieten.
