Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with some transparency and a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: tropical hoppy notes, danky to oniony hop tones, light orangey hoppiness, clean bready malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a bittersweet to sweet taste; finishes orangey and tropical hoppy
Texture: light bodied, somewhat sessionable, some smooth tones but also light oily slick tones too
Overall: nicely done DIPA I would have again.

Tap at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours lite amber with a creamy white head. Aroma is very pine. Med body or better. Flavor is surprisingly malty with pine, and maybe citrus, hop. Mild hop burn. And it produces an illusion of mixed fresh, light fruits in the finish. Excellent.
