16 oz can purchased at the brewery. Aroma shows mild citrus on top of earthy / danky hops. The flavor has a good amount of citrus fruits with again a underlying dank, hop undercurrent. The 9% is well hidden. Nicely made!

Crowler (3/12/21) pour. It's a deeply hazy dark yellow with decent sparkle, finger-width off-white foamy head with good retention and many rings of soapy lacing. Aroma is dank musky herb over citrus and mild candied fruit. Taste is strong dank vegetal herb over citrus and strong grainy malt backbone. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation and crisp finish. Overall, some very nice elements. Straddles the line a bit between traditional IIPA and NEIIPA but fair complexity and interest.
