Departures from Equilibrium are known as fluctuations. It pours a very hazy tangerine color, releasing bright tropical notes of passion fruit, mango, pineapple, and lychee with an undercurrent of sorbet and cream. Fluctuation tastes highly resinous and tropical with an assertive yet soft bitterness. We consider this fluctuation to be perfectly unbalanced.

Can, 0.457l. Aroma of citrus, passion fruit, mango, pine and biscuit. Pours hazy dark golden color with thick creamy off-white head, great lacing and sparkling appearance. Tastes juicy tropical and stone fruity, resinous and sweet biscuity with mild spicy mouthfeel and average bitter finish. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Fluctuation between good and better…

1 pint can. Pours a turbid tawny colour with chunks in suspension but with full head. Aromas of pithy orange, mangos and wheat malts. Flavour of piney dank hops, a little resin, pithy orange, chalk and wheat malts. Would be nice to buy a canned IPA that is clear and sharp or for brewers to be clear that the product is just another hazy.

Can at home from Leftfield, 26th May 2021. Pours a deep hazy light orange. Aroma is pineapple, mango and juicy fruits. Taste follows the aroma, with earthy, mango and pineapple, juicy and then dry with moderate bitterness. Good

02/21/21, tavour doesn't offer very fresh IPAs but I'm happy to have equilibrium from distro-sorta for sure, still packing heat, eq might want to change that "purchase cold + trade cold + keep cold" can label though.
