Poured from a 16 oz can dated August 07, 2024. Aroma is fruit forward with a ton of mango. Hints of other tropical fruit and light dank, resin notes. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes. Pours a hazy, golden orange color with a medium large, medium thick, white head that recedes quickly to a very small thin film. No lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly high mango notes with hints of tropical fruit, citrus and dank, resin notes from the hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent fruited IPA but I'm not sure that I really like the mango fruit addition to the beer. The fruit overwhelms everything about the beer including the hops and malt.
