From can: pours gold with white head. Aroma is tropical fruit, citrus, soapy lemon, something very much like sorachi ace. Quite bitter... something you do not see that often anymore. Apricot and citrus and the like. Interesting but not my favorite.

Can at Hellcat Annie’s. Unclear orange color, strong off white lace. Drippy / streaky on the glass. Aroma of juicy hops and booze. Mango and pineapple. A little pine. Caramel. A bit too much booze for my personal preference. Okay, but kinda accentuates my issues with most 9% DIPAs. The alcohol overrides any chance of beautiful, bright subtly. 16 ounces later I’m just wishing I had a 4 oz sample instead of a whole can.
