Poured from a 16 oz can dated June 22, 2022. Aroma is hop forward and fruity with lots of strawberry, mango, passion fruit and melon. Light dank, oily resin notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a hazy, bright, golden-orange with a medium sized, fairly thick, fluffy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Medium light lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderately strong bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly fruit and hop forward with lots of mango and passion fruit with lighter notes of strawberries, melon and over ripe stone fruit. Hints of dank, oily resin. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low, but present alcohol warmth. Overall, a pretty decent DIPA. The alcohol is a bit prevalent for me and the fruity esters from fermentation are a bit stronger than I prefer and overshadow the hops a bit.
