I believe this 12 oz can came from the local craft beer shop, glad to find it. Unfortunate news that Oskar Blues has closed their brewery in Austin, hope this does not limit local availability from them for beers like this. In a salute I have out my ABGB tulip glass, another Austin brewery. I lift the tab, pour and determine a hazy, gold-going-to-yellow body with a decent top of snow white foam, promptly settling. I smell tropical, pine and white bread. The drink follows quickly, not bad. The taste is grapefruit, honeydew, kiwi, malt, grain and orange rind. A nice combo of sweet and bitter. This sampling follows one that just didn't go right. Nice to have a good IPA.

12oz can picked up at the state store. Pours cloudy yellow with a medium sized white head, light lacing. Tropical fruit, melon, pineapple, resin, sweet grains, citrus zest. Good

Brand extension is a helluva drug. Tropical notes are prominent, but also offers up a sticky sweetness on the back end. Eh.

Aroma's lean resin hops with some citrus sweet and a little grain. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose with mango and peach coming out along with some citrus and the resin in the back. Appearance is a hazy. Pretty good beer.

From a sample pack: pours sort of hazy with a white head. Aroma is mango and tropic notes. Sort of bitter. Fruity. Meh.
