Poured from a 16 oz can dated February 11, 2025.
Aroma is fairly hop forward with lots of passion fruit, strawberry, tropical citrus, guava and dank, oily resin notes. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes.
Pours a clear, brilliant, golden-orange color with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Light lacing and small legs.
Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Fairly high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly strong hop notes of tropical citrus, grapefruit pith and dank, oily, pine resin. Lighter notes of passion fruit, berries and guava.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid DIPA. Fairly hoppy and fruity aroma while the flavor has a decidedly more West Coast flavor to it with lots of dank, piney resin and grapefruit. Fairly bitter but not crazy.

Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours clear gold with a decent foamy white head that persisted and did a little lacing. Aroma starts with armpit and gets some citrus. Med body or better. Flavor is somewhat funky with citrus. Dry. Pretty bitter. Has a sensation like passion fruit. Funky just keeps on funking. Nice ale.
