Poured from a 16 oz can dated June 23, 2020. Aroma is balanced and not particularly hop forward. Medium light cracker malt notes. Moderate hop notes of tropical citrus, grapefruit, orange, mango and dank, piney resin notes. Hints of alcohol. Pours a moderately hazy, dull, golden straw color with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Flavor is slightly sweet with light medium light cracker malt notes. Moderately strong bitterness and faint alcohol notes. Moderate notes of grapefruit, orange, tropical citrus and a decent amount of piney resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an alright beer but it's missing the juicy, fruity esters I generally expect in a hazy IPA. This is more like a cross between a NEIPA and a West Coast one.
