16oz can. Really solid, juicy IPA. Has some malt depth too to back it up, nice bitterness. Refreshing. Old School West Coast feel. Good.

Can, from a market in Chicago. Pours faintly cloudy dark yellow/amber with a large foamy beige head, light piney aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter piney taste, thin body, long medium bitter finish. Typical American IPA.

12 oz. can dated 2-20-19. The foam has really kicked up, largely owing to the fact that I, um, dropped the can just before opening it. But I managed to avoid a gusher. As the foam settled, I picked up a tropical fruit nose, partly pineapple and mango, after an initial light hop grassiness. Gold color with just a little bit of haze under the foam. Taste is embraceable. A standard IPA bitterness with that touch of tropical fruit that would mark American hops. Pretty sticky malts to pair off against the hop bill. Slightly bigger than a session beer, but it still finds balance.

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2017. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma is slightly dank, a touch of onion, grass, citrus and sweet grains backing. Flavor is dank as well, with some pine, bitter citrus, grass and sweet grains underlying.
