Wiping your rear with a pine cone is about as rough as camping should get. That’s why we invented this portable IPA in a can. A hoppy, refreshing beverage that goes great with campfires, bears, granola, and mosquito repellent. Happy Camping!

Sample at GABF 10/11/2012, thanks to Bluemeow76 for assistance with note-taking. The beer is a clear amber color with a medium off-white head and short strings of lacing. Aroma of toasted malt and hops. Medium body with flavors of grassy hops, bready malt and citrus. The finish is hoppy with a fruit aftertaste. Decent overall.

Acquired in a trade. Enjoyed in a snifter at fridge temp.

A - 2-finger dark white head. tight and big bubbles mixed. Dark golden brown appearance. totally clear.

S - big caramel malty scent. Huge piney resinous scent. oaky charred burnt notes.

T - More of the same. Very pine resinous. Sweet and full of caramel.

M - 80% carbonation on mouth swish. Medium body. Intensely bitter finish. Hints of cloves as well

O - This is a solid IPA but it’s more akin to a DIPA than an IPA. Still very drinkable. Kudos for being canned.

Can at BTBF. Pours with a clear golden hued body with a large white head. Aromas are: DANK. Some citrus, weed, resin, all hops, light pine, yeast seems clean beneath the hops, no real malt character. Flavors show a bit of caramel malt, dank, citrus, weed. Seems very CTZ like. Lively bubbles, dry and pretty darn good.
