355ml can from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours slightly opaque gold, with medium grained white foam, limited. Aroma is really weird, probably because of the coconut. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is mildly sweet. Final is average.

Slightly hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a very large, super soapy tan head,  at least seven centimetres tall that takes a long time to fade. Aroma of grass, funk, earth, citrus, lemon zest and a dash of pepper - quite strong, but also showing a lot of odd notes. Medium-bodied; Strong citrus notes dominate at first with a lot of funky malts and especially funky yeast flavours and finishing off with a vanilla like presence which makes it more like a creamsicle than anything else. Aftertaste shows some nice malts with a dash of grain and pepper bitterness and then showing the sweeter citrus and fructose elements. Overall, a nice and pungent IPA that shows more of a traditional East Coast IPA flavour and profile than anything 'New England', But it definitely has flavours and some relatively deep ones with a bit of pungency. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in Manassas, Virginia on 19-May-2020 for US$2,49 sampled at my house here in Washington on 15-June-2020.

Shorter stubby bottle. First taste is almost friendly fruity candy, with a bitter bite. Yes, somebody accidentally left the peels on these green unripened citrus fruits. Nice and hazy on pale is the eye. In the middle it starts to get unruly and sweet as well as perfumy, a little cloying. Yes, coconut and pineapple does not help here. Yes, this is what seems to be an aged IPA turned into a fruity. Rude ass finish, fer sher. In the end it almost wants to be one of those holiday spiced beers. Did not enjoy, just a tick. Tropical its not.

Prickly pear, yeast, banana, cake batter aroma. Cloudy amber, thick head, nice lace. Coconut, lemon meringue. Medium body, soft carbonation. Very neat, unexpected. More fruit beer than NE IPA.

Weird to have a hazy IPA where there’s almost no fruit juiciness; even weirder to have one so dominated by coconut. (Shame on me for not realizing I was buying a pina colada beer.) Subdued, as with most Abita IPAs, hints of Citra underneath cracker malt and pineapple. But coconut rules here. Eh.
