You've earned a break. Relax as waves of pineapple, mango and citrus wash over you. Loaded with tropical hops.

Pkg on 3/1/23 it says on the bottom of the can. Tropical can be good in an IPA, this evening I'll see about this one. I tilt into a tulip glass and determine a see-through, pale yellow liquid with a fair cover of fully white foam. The scent is tropical and citrus, no new territory being discovered here. The drink is something of a hybrid, a nice amount of hoppiness, some cedar, malt and bitterness offset by grapefruit significantly and pineapple. Interesting enough but not really a beer I can get turned around by.

Poured from the tap. Clear yellow gold with small white head. Tropical and citrus hops, fairly clean, decent.

Can from a sixer from Nugget Market in Woodland, CA. Pours darkish gold with a large creamy white head. Aroma is mango and pineapple. Malt isn't in it. Med body. Flavor has a strong bite - likely the pineapple. There's mango, melon and citus. Surprisingly dry. Much more than moderately bitter. Excellent.
