Can. Cloudy orange in color. Aroma is tropical fruits. Taste is very tasty with hints of pineapple and other tropical fruit. This would be a great lake beer.

Mostly clear coloured golden and light yelllow coloured body with a nice three centimetre tall microfoamed tan head that stays afloat nicely and leaves a rich lace on the sides. Aroma of super tropically and very fruity notes with some crisp grape scents, a lot of pineapple, guava and papaya notes with a strong kick of caster sugar as well, with no hop bitterness noticeable, but the nose is very nice! Light to Medium-bodied; Rich fruity flavours show at first with the fresh grapes, cherries and especially tropically guava and flavours show stronger than any malt or hops here, in a good way. Aftertaste shows a bunch of sugars and super fruity, crisp and tropically notes that hit nicely and are balanced slightly by the soft malts, with no hop bitterness here at all. Overall, a super new-school, very fruity, sweet, easy drinkable and flavourful beer that has NO bitterness, no complexity or range, but in this case, that's okay! Good to sample and if you want a fruity, properly balanced and easy-drinking, pure new-school IPA, this is it - get it NOW! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Siciliano's Market in Grand Rapids, Michigan on 03-August-2021 for US$1,89 canned on 19-December-2020 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 22-June-2022.

Fake strawberry and some fruit punch. Murky orange pour with ok head. Overly sweet finish with some wet grass. Fairly terrible. Can.

From a can. Pours a clear gold with an off white head. Aromas of grass and pine. Flavors are bitter and dank.

Pineapple, orange, malt, and orange peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with large off-white head. Moderately sweet pineapple, orange, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter orange peel flavor. Good body. Very fruity.

A flight sampler at EPCOT World Showcase. Clear gold color with a nice white head. Smells like pure pineapple juice. However it tastes like a regular IPA. Very hoppy with medium bitterness and a dry finish. The pineapple flavor comes through a little more as it warms, but is still faint.
Pours a pale yellow with a thin white head. Aroma of mango, tropical notes. Taste has incredibly fruity notes, tropical elements, mild resin. Palate has some more intense mango, dry malt finish. Good.

Quarantine Beer #101 sampled at home on 05/01/2020. Clear pale golden color with a medium white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Sparse strings of lace. Tropical fruit, floral hop and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of mild grassy hop, tropical fruit and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

Blue & green $2 can. Slight haze on pale with a big foaming rocky head. Smell is like clean pineapple citrus with a faint hop olfactory. Taste is of course, hoppy IPA bitter. Rude ass palate kick in the face. Way over the top. Difficult and nasty as any other IPA. Even a bit astringent perhaps. Ruins my taste sensations with overwhelming negative non-enjoyable nasty nellie. No lager lover is going to go for this straight up insulting brew. I'm not one for IPA but if you are, ignore my numbers and comments, and put this one on yer must have IPA list, its a bastard of an IPA, borders on double imperial IPA territory. A little volatile on the finish.
