12oz can. Nice, true, thick, opaque peach body. Head sort of fades, but still laces the glass up. A pretty solid IIPA, well rounded hop profile. Pleasant wheaty-oat-yeast body, no floaties or any of that nonsense. Well done, enjoyable. A rather epic hop blend, I feel like you can taste of all of them.

Almost a great beer. The amalgamation of worldwide hops makes for a curious, grapefruit-heavy pint; sure, there are notes of melon, berry, white grape, bubblegum, guava, and mango, but it's all overshadowed by a clingy, aggressive grapefruit citrus tartness. Which is fine; I like a good grapefruit bomb every now and again. But the astringency comes on fast and furious; hop burn sets in well before the glass is half empty. Honestly, I couldn't finish the pint; not worth ruining my throat for the evening just to get some serious juice. It's a shame.
