Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed after getting to work way too early this morning. Appearance is a cloudy gold with a moderate white head that laces to the glass. Aroma is rich in hops, spice, but really it’s just hops. Taste goes down with a hoppy flavor, mixture of pine and citrus, overall decent though.

12oz can. Hazy golden-tan body. Foamy white head. Really solid IPA. Modern hop bill. Tropical rindy citrus. Straightforward golden malt backbone lets the hops shine, some yeastiness adds depth. Dry straw, citrus. Well done.

Blind tasting @ home. Hazy golden orange appearance with a hefty, off white head. Aroma is pretty fruit forward with notes of pineapple, tropical fruits, and orange creamsicle. Also a bit of resin and spiciness from the hops as well in the nose. Flavor is a bit stale / dated. Moderately to highly bitter. Moderate plus sweetness. Some doughy / biscuity notes as well. Pretty quick aftertaste. Ok at this point but it would have been nice to have tried this fresh.
