Poured from a 16 oz can dated August 12, 2020. Aroma is fruity and hop forward with lots of passion fruit, melon, coconut and tropical citrus notes. Light cracker malt notes and a bit of alcohol. Pours a hazy, dull, golden orange straw color with a medium large, thick, pillowy white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet, especially in the finish, with light cracker malt notes. Fairly strong bitterness and medium light alcohol spice. Lots of tropical citrus, melon, passion fruit and coconut notes with quite a bit of a resin note. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid DIPA. Solid hop notes in the aroma and a light, creamy malt body. The alcohol is a bit strong in the flavor though and isn't as well hidden as it could be.
