16 ounce can. Hazy medium gold color. Large dense white head. Fragrant, fruity malt aroma. Notes of papaya, pineapple, mango and orange. Sharp bittersweet malty flavor upfront.nvery sweet. Tastes like a topical fruit drink with big boozy notes. Some bready malt as well. Bittersweet boozy finish.

Can from Craft Brewed. Nash Distro for CBC. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Crushed pineapple and booze on the nose. Sharp alcohol on the palate with a creamy well-rounded mouthfeel. Sugary sweet and boozy finish. All over the place, kind of disappointing from my other Westbrook experiences.

Kinda bummed with how this can turned out; One Claw and Two Claw are goddamn exemplars of their respective styles. Three Claw? Not so much. Very harsh for a NEDIPA (is that what we're calling these now?), with a formidable alcohol presence for an 8% beer. Very sweet as well, with a honey-caramel base equaling the juicy hop presence. Nice tropical mango and pineapple, and the slight bitterness perks up the back end, but the booziness is off-putting and the rye feels drowned out by the overly sweet malts. Pours a ultra-hazed yellow-gold with a thin white head and decent lacing. Tropical nose is subdued. Put that extra claw back, little crab.

Tall can. Thanks to Travlr for this one! Cloudy orange body with a firm, one finger white head. The aroma is topical fruit and pineapple. The flavor carries sweetness and bitterness together pretty well, with big juicy fruits from the aroma. Not a big overly sweet mess as some IIPAs tend to be for me.
