Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6

The aromas are toffee malt and slightly old resin hops. Flavors are a touch sweet up front with lots of bitter towards the end. Add in some medicinal. Carbonation is a bit soft with decent body. Long bitter malty finish. Date stamped September of 22 but I can't tell if it's canned on or best by.

Draft, at Firetrucker, with a taco truck taco. Brassy color, with a little Haze in the glass. The nose has nothing but the traditional IPA resin smell, and there's nothing wrong with that. Taste is a precise balance of malt sweetness and happiness, with some hop afterburn. This seems to hue very strongly toward an avatar of the traditional IPA style. In a a brewing World filled with tropical fruit, cold and sour IPAs, this is very welcome.
