Both aromas and flavors have plenty of fresh grapefruit with a little pine resin and dank hops. Mildly sweet up front with lots of growing bitterness towards a bitter finish. Decent beer.

From a 473ml can on 3/1/2020. Pours a light clear golden with a medium head. The aroma is quite strong, resiny and a bit herbal. Has a decent malt and biscuit backbone, a decent whack of sweet citrus, and finishes with strong resiny, piny hops. The mouthfeel is a bit slick, the carbonation moderate to average.

16 oz. can, about 2.5 months old, pours a hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out lots of bitter piney hops, a bit of woody resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is full of resinous and piney hops, some woody notes, and caramely bready malt. Nice balance between malt and hoppy, while the hops maintain their bitter forcefulness despite the somewhat sticky malt. Very nice west coast-style.

Very nice, crisp, golden, light amber and beautiful copper coloured body with a light haze, contributing about fifteen per cent opacity, all with a dense, three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of pine, grass, flowers, resin, honey and a light touch of medicine and alcohol. Medium to perhaps Full-bodied; Strong floral and piney hop notes and bitterness with a light touch of fruity sweetness and resin, but the burn and warmth from the alcohol and astringency at the end is quite evident. Aftertaste is deep and robust with the floral and very grassy hop notes and bitterness very strong at the end, with a good, supportive and deep malt backbone along with some alcohol and robust astringency. Overall, a strong and fitting beer for the style, with perhaps a touch too much grassy and floral hoppiness instead of citrusey/pine/dank notes, but pretty good overeall, and makes me remember the days of a truly bitter, pungent, West Coast dank IPA with the 'new' nuances and tendancies that most IPAs have now-a-days that a lot of time aren't even bitter at all! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 17-July-2020 for US$4,76 sampled the following day, at home in Washington on 18-July-2020.

Can Amber beer with a cream head. Light tropical aroma with grapefruit. Grapefruit and tropical fruit flavor with pine. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Grapefruit and tropical fruit linger with pine.
