Can. Quite hazy yellow, medium creamy off white head, great lacing. Aroma is dank, pot, melon. Mango, tangerine. Flavor is light plus sweet, light plus bitter. Juicy and dank with enough bitterness to feel. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel. Winner winner chicken dinner. 5,8,9,5,18

Poured from a 16 oz can dated July 07, 2021. Aroma is hop forward and fruity with lots of passion fruit, mango, stone fruit, tangerine, tropical citrus and light, dank resin notes. Light cracker malt notes and light alcohol notes. Pours a hazy, full, golden orange color with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderately strong bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly strong, fruity, juicy hop notes. Lots of passion fruit, mango, stone fruit, lychee and lighter tangerine and tropical citrus notes. Light dank, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid DIPA. Lots of nice, fruity hop notes with a good combination of tropical and stone fruit. Balanced notes of alcohol, bitterness and malt character.
