I have a 16 oz can from the local beer store, the owner seems to get a lot of Toppling Goliath brews, fine by me. The stamp on the bottom says PKG 12/01/23 to pass along. Using a globe glass tonight, I lift the tab and pour. I see the typical hazy IPA appearance, cloudy yellow-orange with a substantial top of completely white foam. While the style is a distance from being my favorite, I will say that the scent is pleasant. Tropical, orange juice and a touch of pine. I follow with a taste and get oranges, pineapple, enough hops to register, honeydew, varnish and straw. Considerably more sweetness than bitterness. Not great, not bad, an easy beer to drink, which I would do again.

Pours a hazy, bright lemon yellow, with lasting, mid-sized head. Aroma is dank, with some green onion on top of citrus and tropical fruits. Flavor follows. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.
