Pours murky gold into a tulip. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving soapy lacing. Mango and passion fruit aromas. Soft with sweet papaya and guava upfront turning to dirty melon rind and tangerine pith in the dry, lasting finish.

Can to tulip. Thanks Jake.
Appearance: yellow to semi-bright orange with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated mildly to leave some messy to spotty lace
Aroma: hops speak of a blend of berries, pine and citrusy tones, mild clean bready malts
Flavor: nice bittersweet blend between the hops and malts; quick aftertaste of the citrusy hops
Texture: medium bodied, good sipper; finishes fairly dry with the citrusy and berry hoppiness
Overall: nicely done DIPA worthy of returning to.

Can to tulip. Thanks Jake.
Appearance: yellow to bright copper color with a two finger white foamy head dissipating nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: semi-sweet cirtrusy to grassy hops with a small whiff of pine, clean biscuity malts
Flavor: clean bittersweet hoppiness blending with the malts. Mild aftertaste of the citrusy hops with that smooth underscore of pine
Texture: about medium bodied, maybe a touch under, great sipper, great finish of the citrusy hops
Overall: very nicely done DIPA worthy of more pours

Can, from City Swiggers, Manhattan NYC (Apr 2025). Pours faintly cloudy pale yellow with a large foamy off-white head, citrus peel aroma, adequate carbonation, mildly bitter citrusy taste, smooth thin body, long finish. A bit thin but tasty.

Aroma has notes of cantaloupe, peach, bready malt, pine, citrus. Taste has a moderate to high pithy bitterness, finishing lightly dry. Perfectly carbonated creamy mouthfeel. Well done.
