Not bad, more new-school juicy IPA than traditional West Coast, with plenty of ripe pineapple, peach, and passion fruit, followed up by a modest mineral-pine bitterness and a lingering sweet streak. Not what I expected, but still a pretty good pint.

From a can and I say up front I am not qualified to rate IPA, I hate them; so if you read the numbers, just flip em. Got this can for bout 2$. It's just a tick. The more I hate it, the more you'll love it if yer a eye pee ayah liker. I am so sick of IPA and double and impy and double impy IPA. Right from the can I feel like its a bitter bomb. Sappy, viscous, mouth coating hops galore. Its so bitter, its so medicinal, its so preservative. There you have it; just another straight up ass bitter hops beer. How many of these are out there? Ah-zillion Bazillion gazillion? Just asking. And may I ask, how many very well made ones are out there? Maybe a hunderd? IPA, the new macro wannah bee. Finally, for the finish, I pour the last dregs into the glass, it clear pale and bubble looking. It actually looks refreshing. How misleading the cover on a book can be. LOL BTW, it has that minimal typical contemporary floral hint of IPA olfactory about its bouquet.
