Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: semi-burnt amber with a sly transparency about it; two and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: citrusy & piney hops mesh with a lean caramel/toffee malt bill
Flavor: prior aromas blend for a mighty fine bittersweet old school sort of appeal; finishes piney and the caramel/toffee malts
Texture: medium bodied and a nice hoppy bite that I seemed to have missed from many IPA's these days; sessionable and a light smoothness but not too much
Overall: seems a bit like a West coast styled IPA but hey I ain't arguing, I'd bang this beauty again.

Can from a Lazy Dog. Lightly hazy dark golden color with a good sized frothy off white head that persists. Citrus and pine with a fair amount of sweet bread and mineral water.

No date coding. (However, released 19 December 2019 ) Aroma shows mild pineapple, caramel malt, maybe grass. Flavor follows. Overall the malts overrun the hops. Pretty run-of-the-mill.
