Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: glossy burnt orange to copper color with a light transparency about it and a two finger white foamy head which slid off delicately to leave some light lace
Aroma: light honey malts in front then a light piney to muted grapefruity hop tone then back to the malts but slightly in a semi-sugary sort of way then a touch of perfume
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine bitter quality with a breaking sugary toned backdrop; finishes the same way
Texture: light to medium bodied; leaning towards being a sipper; slight smoothness but also a little bit of something raw seems to be nipping the tongue - hmmmm, not exactly sure if it feels as good as it could have been
Overall: what an odd DIPA, definitely leaves me scratching my beard a bit.

Undated can from the brewery, drunk 3/29/24. Gently hazy, deep brass-lemon-golden. Large, off-white head, well-retained. Juicy tropical fruit with rich, cakey/honey-like malts. Smells like a Lawson's-style IPA. Clean, no booze or resin. Rich and malty, almost too sweet. Odd that my experience differs so much from AirForceHops'. Juicy mango, orange, papaya and pineapple. No resin, maybe just a hint of alcohol. Pretty nice for its size without any gross yeast, raw alcohol or pine (nor punchy pineapple). Some light, perfumey alcohol and oily bitterness on the end, indeed.

16 oz can in a trade with ClarkVV. Flavor shows mild citrus, upfront with soft herbs through the center. The malt backbone is a little flimsy. Lighter body. Soft bitterness in the form of herb. The booze is mostly hidden. (Yet, still here) it is ok.

On tap at the Vermont NanoFest, pours a hazy pale yellow with creamy white head. Nose is ok, fruity, key lime, guava, perfume. Flavor is sweet with citrus and orange, some guava and passion fruit, a little perfume and honey. Finishes bitter, oily. Solid.
