A great aroma comes off a creamy off-white head that slowly snakes down the sides of the glass. There is a slight astringent note that seems to follow the hops bitterness that detracts slightly, and is perhaps the only fault in an otherwise excellent IPA.

12 ounce can from Total Wine Appleton, 11/18/24. Hazy orange, large off-white head. average retention. Aroma of sweet fruit punch and citrus. Taste is much the same. This is chasing the Kool Aid trend. Sad.
