Poured from a 16 oz can dated July 17, 2018. Aroma is hop forward and quite fruity with pineapple, passion fruit, green grapes and pear. Light fracker malt notes. Pours a moderately hazy, golden orange with a large, frothy, white head that recedes slowly to a film that lingers on the edges. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a medium light sweetness with medium light cracker malt notes. Moderate bitterness with a bit of a lingering resin notes and some faint alcohol notes. Some fruity esters along with quite a bit of fruity hop flavor. Pineapple, passion fruit, pear and peach. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent IPA using a less popular hop for the style. The hops work really well with the fruity esters from the yeast.
