Can. Unclear golden body with a big, creamy, white head. Nice, strong aroma of tropical fruit, pineapple and some cat pee. Flavor is nice and fruit as well with tropical fruit, pineapple, citric zest, malty sweetness and quite bitter. Medium body with a tropical fruit bitter aftertaste. Nice hop driven IPA somewhere between classic DIPA and modern IPA.

Now this is some good West Coast double IPA, in the style of Plinny the Elder (yes), even though it comes from England in a can. I don't know why it's been rated so low till now, to be honest. 33 cl can bought at Más que Cervezas, Madrid, served in red wine glass. It pours dark hazy amber, pretty much like honey. Head is off-white, rocky and long-lasting. Aroma is intense, with loads of tropical fruit (think mango and passionfruit, also apricot) and conifers (such as resin, pine needle or cedar cone), along with lots of honey. Mouthfeel is slick, crisp, zesty and full-bodied, with a super bitter finish that doesn't kick because sourness balances perfectly the equation. Aftertaste is conifers and more conifers, all of them. Gr-r-r-reat!!

Can 33 cl. Orange, hazy with a minimal white head. Lots of hoppy aroma, some tropical fruits, citrus and yeast sense. Bittersweet taste with a good hop end.
