Poured from a 16 oz can dated November 24, 2020. Aroma is fairly citrus forward with orange, tangerine, grapefruit, guava, passion fruit and light dank, resinous notes. Light cracker malt notes and hints of alcohol. Pours a hazy, dull, orange color with a medium large, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes steadily until it leaves on film on the edges. Flavor is moderately sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderate bitterness and light alcohol notes. Very juicy with tons of citrus notes of orange, tangerine, mandarin and tropical citrus. Lighter notes of guava, passion fruit and mango with a faint dank, resin note. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid IPA. Lots of juicy hop flavor, but the aroma is a bit lighter. Very easy drinking though. A bit of a green bite in the finish.
