Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 6.5

Poured from a 16 oz can dated April 15, 2019. Aroma is hop forward with a dank onion note and lighter citrus notes. Light herbal, spicy note that is really odd for a hop aroma. Light grain notes and hints of alcohol spice. Pours a fairly clear, golden orange with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with a moderate grain note and a bit of biscuit. Moderate bitterness and light alcohol spice. Moderate hop notes with onion and hints of citrus. The flavor again has the weird, herbal, spicy note that was in the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low, but present alcohol warmth. Overall, not a very good IPA. This odd hop(?) note is really unpleasant. I guess it's dank, but that kind of dank where you can't decide if it's great or just poopy.

On tap at McGillicuddy’s, Five Corners, Essex Junction VT.
This was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a sly crisp yellow color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a quick pace. Messy sticky spider web lace.
The aroma takes on sweet oily oniony hops with a low key bitterness far underneath. Grassy sweet to bitter hops even further underneath.
The flavor yields to the sweet danky onion taste , sly crisp to oily sort of skin-esque sticky sort of low riding smooth sweet maltiness. Sly oily smooth sweet aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Low carbonation.
Overall, it’s a good AIPA that I could have again. Just dankier, that’s all.

Draft pour pint at Hop and Hound. Sometimes I wonder where, and how they come across these kegs. Always something new. I love it. Lighter hazy golden pour with an active fizz head. Name gets the dank part right. Wet hop aroma. Advertised as low bitter, but comes off as bitter to me. Good hop profile overall. Orange fruit in there late. Good IPA.

Tap at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours translucent gold with a slight white head. Aroma is dankish. Med body or better. Biting hop forward. It’s dank; fruity. Malt is present, but is solely for hop support. Fruit seems to include a tropical aspect. Bitter. Hoppy. Like fresh wet hop ale. Very nice.

Tap. Pours clear golden, small white head, nice lacing. Aroma is tropical, dank, passionfruit, pine. Flavor is light sweet, medium bitter, a bit of pot, plus tropical fruit. A bit less juicy than the best, but pretty solid. Medium body

Draught at Harry’s Hofbrau. Moderate citrus with moderate low pint on nose. Pours a hazy dark straw with almost no head. Flavor is heavy resin with high bitterness. Moderate juicy citrus in the second half. Citrus lingers long nicely. Taste makes up for a disappointing aroma and appearance.
