12 ounce can. Amber gold pour. Large frothy white head. Robust, dank citrus hop nose. First sip yields notes of bitter lemon and grapefruit. Earthy malt, then dank, sweet citrus hops. Quite nice indeed.

Decent easy drinking and bitter west coast IPA. Type that makes me nostalgic these days. Piney and bitter. Golden pour with decent head. Tap at Capital Ale House.

Can 355ml (Beer Republic, canned 11/06/18) Clear amber colour, medium-sized white head and lace. Aroma has pine, resin - strong hop oily nose. Medium-bodied. Pine, resin, grapefruit and light caramalt. Very hoppy - not for NEIPA boys! Not really tropical although can claims so. Somehat simple collab, old school style IPA.

15 March 2019. At Dok Brewing Company, Ghent. Shared with the lovely Anke! Pours clear golden-orange with a lasting, small, foamy, white head; irregular lacing. Inviting aroma of grapefruit peel, unripe peach, stonefruit, mango, papaya, dank onion, hashish. Taste is medium fruity sweet, a bit tropical, pineapple, papaya & mandarin on an oniony, yeasty, bit bready base; assertive medium hoppy bitterness in the middle with grapefruit, mango, pine, some sourish lime in the back. Dryish, floral & piney hoppy finish, lingering tropical fruit, onion, resin. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Lovely 'classic' IPA, very much recommended.

Clear, golden with orange hue, medium white head. Moderate pine and grapefruity hops but with some carob and caramel, medium sweet, dryish finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, oily. Probably seen some Atlantic voyage.

Monkey vs demon. I missed this kind of hoppy monster. Brilliant after so many hazies and Japanese IPAs.
