Can to tulip.
Appearance: ruddy bronze to amber color with a one finger white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace and left a little bit of lace.
Aroma: some danky tones, piney/resin, touch of tropical fruits and some mango
Flavor: balances all the previously noted aromas bittersweetly; then leads to a mild aftertaste of the danky tones and the tropical fruitiness
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; semi-smooth and slick on my tongue; finishes semi-crisp, danky grip and piney
Overall: I'd say nicely done West coast DIPA I would have again.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated April 15, 2019. Aroma is fairly hop forward with lots of mango, bright citrus, pine and dank notes. Medium light cracker malt notes that's have a light biscuit note it them. Light alcohol notes. Pours a fairly clear, golden color with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers on the edges. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with medium cracker malt notes with light biscuit character. Moderate bitterness and light alcohol spice. Moderate mango, tropical fruit, orange and tangerine notes with lighter pine and dank notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low, but present astringency and low, but present alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice west coast DIPA. Solid hop notes with a good malt body and character that hides the alcohol well.

Draft at Beer Baron. Medium golden, small soapy head. Hoppy, dank aroma. Taste moreso, floral notes. Big and bitter. Lingering bite.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Aroma is dank, arguably juicy and tropical. Med + body. Flavor is dank, earthy, juicy and fruity. Tropical escapes me - likely due to the earth. I’d almost say tobacco. It’s dry, hoppy, quite bitter and very nice.
