Teku showing medium amber with half a finger of clean white foam.
The nose shows moderately intense notes of pine and pineapple with a light malt sweetness in the middle.
The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Light but forward flavors of tropical fruit - mango, pineapple, hints of kiwi. Moderately intense but balanced IPA bitterness on the finish.

The aromas are a nice blend of fresh citrus, sweat, resin and a touch of weed hops. Flavors are similar to nose, with a good balance between sweet, bitter, carbonation, malt and hops. Satisfying finish.

12 ounce can from Woodman’s Appleton, 8/17/22. Hazy orange, large white head, good retention. Aroma of mango, leafy hops, floral notes, hint of honey. Taste is pine, resin, citrus, pale malt. Pretty dry. Mild bitterness. Nice.

12oz can. Quite a massive hop aroma, not quite what I associate with Strata, seems augmented some by Mosaic or Citra. Peach with a touch of spearmint? Decent malt depth, seems like Golden Promise or something a little more depthful. Pretty solid Juicy IPA, perhaps not such a definitive example of Strata though.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has citrus rind and bright orange with a grain backbone. Flavor has tropical fruits and light citrus with sweet grains underlying.
