Poured from a 16 oz can dated February 14, 2024. Aroma is fairly fruity with quite a bit of a dank note. Nice zesty citrus notes with some passion fruit. Dank, resin notes with a light pine character. Light cracker malt notes and some light alcohol notes. Pours a slightly hazy, yellow-gold with a medium large, moderately thick, frothy white head that quickly recedes to a small film that lingers on the edges. Light lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Medium high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong citrus notes with some bright passion fruit. Medium dank, resin notes with hints of pine. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid West Coast IPA. Really nice fruity hop notes with quite a bit of dank character to balance it. Alcohol is really well hidden and balanced by the bitterness. Just enough malt body to carry it all.
