Very hazy, deep and beautiful straw golden coloured body with a nice two centimetre tall off-white microfoamed (at the top) head that stays afloat nicely above the 90 per cent opaque yellow glow. Aroma of alcohol, deep orange peel and tangerines with some nice malts and biscuits noticeable for support and seemingly a lot of alcohol - in the nose, at least. Full-bodied; Very strong and rich malts show at first, but the fruits are right behind, with the apricots, peaches and stone fruits strongest and very deep, but there is some oranges and grapefruit here as well, with a light hit of sugars from the lactose, but a bunch more from the alcohol, which is strong. Aftertaste shows the bitterness from the hops, in a nice, older school way, with some nice fruit flavours still at the finish, with the apricots and stone fruits strongest, but some floral and grassy notes do hit at the end that bump up the bitterness. Overall, a very nice rich and strong IPA that has a lot of bitterness, alcohol, malts, stone fruits and pungency, but is great for the style and enjoyable throughout. Great to have from Oklahoma, very fresh as well and well worth the space in my suitcase to bring back home to the East Coast! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Freeman's Liqour in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on 01-September-2022 for US$4,95, canned on 12-May-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 21-September-2022.
