Can (8/18/22) pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! It's a hazy dark honey brown with light sparkle, 2-finger width off-white foamy head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong astringent lemon, pine and mild tart fruit (cherry). Taste is mix of strong tart fruit, cherry, pine and lemon. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, an experimental IPA but it's basically an old school IPA mixed with tart fruit--not digging it.

Can from the brewery enjoyed at home. Just a touch of haze in a light golden beer with a good sized frothy white head that persists. Sweet bready malt with plenty of citrus grass and tropical fruits to counter.
