Can as pictured. Slightly hazy pale. Big foamy head that fades rapidly to nil. Nose is certainly that of IPA, lacks that skunk veggie nose that comes with many session IPA. Taste is a little watery fer sher. However it does have a sort of orange juice IPA feel and flavor. Not as bitter as an IPA should be so it makes it a little more enjoyable to me. Slight veggie feel in the background. Decent co2 as well. Oh well, IPA is an IPA; there are a million of them out there and they pretty much all taste the same. This one is just not as bastardly as as most.

3 week old can A: Poured a dirty dull pale yellow haze with minimal head or lace. S: Complex fruity aroma with orange, tangerine, mango and peach. T: Bitter citrus notes fade to reveal a lacking malt presence save for a faint woody sweetness. M: Light, smooth and well carbonated, finishing clean with no hop burn. O: Tasty enough overall despite some thinness and unappealing look.
