Enjoyed at TCBW 2025.
Poured hazy and orange in color, white head.
Fresh for sure, has some light nz hop wibes, some odd sharpness and strangely also fairly juicy.

Smooth, intensely hoppy, juicy tropical fruity with some creamy fluffiness, citrus, floral notes, grass, pineapple, stonefruits, mild bitterness and sweetness in the finish. Pretty fresh and surprisingly good for a Coolhead IPA.

(Keg at CoolHead Taproom, 20250515) The beer poured yellow and opaque. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had citrus fruits, herbalness, menthol and mango. Palate was medium bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were citrus fruits, mango, peach and bitterness. Aftertaste had citrus fruits, tart fruits and bitterness. A tasty and balanced hoppy brew with long-lasting aftertaste. Aroma showed some hop burn.
