Refrigerated 12 oz can poured into a glass. Hazy golden with small white head. Aroma is bitter hops, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is bitter hops and malt.

Grapefruit and plenty of pine. Golden pour with decent head. Big dose of booze. Bitter end and some caramel. A little marmalade, but not much sugar. Can.

Aroma is malty, some hop oils. Taste has loads of diverse hops, some heavy pine and loads of figs, chocolate. Palate has more borne ale-type elements that completely disguises the heavy ABV - some more fig-like sweetness, and chocolate, pairing well, somehow, with a pretty decent hop bite. Weird, but good.

Did they update recipe/ description for cold ipa? Stilll orangey colored and large head. Nose is candied citrus. Tastes of orange peel, sugared gummy candy, some malt, Hawaiian sweet bread. Medium bodied. Some alcohol presence.

Can @ Broadway Dive Bar, Manhattan (4/18/23). Pours faintly cloudy dark yellow-orange with a large foamy off-white head, orange peel aroma, high carbonation, initially sweet, then bitter orange peel taste with piney flavor, thin body, long bitter orange peel finish. Decent DIPA.
Gold pour. Lemon and hay nose. Even thin head with even lace. Lemony flavor with hay/hops notes.

Lemongrass nose. Clear amber, medium head. Grain and grass. Medium body, easy carbonation, alcohol well concealed. Now that I've had an opportunity to try a dozen or so, I don't believe I'm a fan of cold IPAs.

Can sent by Two Roads for my comment. Nice tropical fruit hop nose under the pop top. Pours a slightly hazy gold color, a bit of a foamy head. The taste keeps up the tropical Pacific hops, then a bit of grass, but very little bitterness. Malts themselves stay on the light side for balance. Although, the extra alcohol results in a thicker mouthfeel, topped by stickiness on my lips. Worth looking for.
