Hopped with Citra, Cashmere & Riwaka for grapefruit, lime, melon & subtle sticky pine flavor with an addition of milk sugar for a full-bodied, smooth mouthfeel.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: pale orange haziness with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which trailed off at a decent pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: melon, star fruit and piney hops with a big vanilla/lactose tone to it
Flavor: takes the prior noted aromas and seems to add a light passion fruit hop tone which seems to kick out a bit more lactose (hmmm, okay, seems we're headed somewhere now); finishes seemingly balanced headed with the those prior mentioned fruity hops to the lactose
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, smooth through the creamy notes and seems that the fruity hop bitterness is really pushing back
Overall: a milkshake IPA that seems way more balanced than so many of it's kind. Maybe Aslin took notes from Brix City (NJ) or Weldwerks (CO)? (I dunno - I'm only saying that because I think they're the best brewers of milkshake IPA's, IMO)

16 oz. can. Why milk sugar? Great question!! Aroma is passionfruit, grapefruit, vanilla. Flavor is much the same. The only thing the lactose gives is a slightly creamy mouthfeel. Just average for me.

Can from Chris M: pours hazy yellow with white head. Aroma is some fruitiness and some milkiness. Taste is slightly sweet, milky, pretty mellow. Not great.
