Poured from a 16 oz can dated September 19, 2023. Aroma is moderately hop forward with notes of orange, grapefruit, tropical citrus and dank, resin, pine notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a rather clear, golden-yellow with a large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Medium lacing and small legs. Flavor has a light sweetness with light cracker malt notes. Fairly strong bitterness with light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes of grapefruit, orange and tropical citrus with lighter dank, resin pine notes that lingers into the finish. Fairly dry finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid IPA. Nice balance of citrus and dank hop notes. Light, clean malt profile carries the alcohol and bitterness without overpowering. Fairly dry, crisp finish.

On tap at Harry's Hofbrau. Pours clear light gold with moderate white head that retains over the top as small, soapy bubbles. Moderate patterning down the glass. Aroma is slight fruit, spicy esters, slight orange. Flavor is moderate low aspects of orange, citrus and pine. Solid resins and slightly tongue scraping.

Hoping 2/23 is a package on date. Can. Almost clear golden amber with a white head. Aroma of kumquat, vague tropical fruit, pine, bread. Clean and barely sweet with just a little crusty bread under the hops. Snappy end is bitter enough. Not as vibrant as the hazy version but pretty good.
