Poured from a 16 oz can dated September 30, 2024. Aroma is moderately hoppy with passion fruit, guava and tropical citrus. Light dank, oily resin notes. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes. Pours a very hazy, dull, golden straw color with a large, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Fairly high amount of lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes of tropical citrus with lighter notes of passion fruit, pineapple and dank, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid hazy DIPA but it's not as hoppy as I was expecting, especially in the aroma. Alcohol and bitterness and balanced. This beer could just use more juicy hop character.
