From a 1$ can at JR's. Pour is virtually clear but there is a very slight haze. Foamy white head fades in a few minutes. Nose is muted hops but there is quite a fruity aroma about it; maybe orange and other citrus. Taste is orange backed up by a little more citrus, could be some grapefruit in there and the tropical aspect is certainly there as well. Comes across juicy and orange-like. For an IPA, the hop bitterness is quite muted, I've had APA that were more bitter bastard than this. I think a lot of IPA are moving away from the terrible bitterness. Pretty soon they'll quit calling these things IPA, hehehehh. Anyway in the middle, I'm feeling decent carbonation and that orange juice thing is keeping itself known. Finish is mild for an IPA and its more orange; can't really find the mango and passionfruit in this. Oh well.
