16 ounce can. Pours clear bright orange hue with a medium white head. A big tropical citrus nose. Sweet, medium bitterness, very clean, soft perfume. A big pale ale, really not distinguishable from an IPA. Very good. Super smooth and easy to drink.

Fairly hazy golden and raw honey coloured body with a nice golden glow and a dash of apricot and peach coloured tints along with a thick, three centimetre tal off-white head. Aroma of bright grassy and citrusey hops along with some biscuity malt backbones, coupled with a larger yeast smell than expected and the alcohol you expect. Medium-bodied; Assertive dry and very herbal flavours with a big dose of grapefruit and citrus bitterness and hop flavours coupled with some more astringent notes that have a lot of pungency and ending with some alcohol warmth throughout. Aftertaste shows the bitterness front and centre with a good malt backbone and balance and ending with a dry and slightly sweet flavour of the apricots and peaches along with a dash of floral and pure resinous hops coming through at the very tail end. Overall, a pretty well-balanced Imperial IPA with a nice complexity towards the end and a lot of dry, citrusey and resinous flavours and a good bit of alcohol as well. Nice to try, and even though this would have been a VERY enjoyable beer on the island, this was nice to literally bring it around the world and have it at home! I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from the Turnpike Shell Gas Station (which sadly I discovered on the way to the airport) in Hagatna, Tamunig, Guam [USA] and brought literally around the world back to home in Washington and sampled on 28-October-2017.

Can @ home. Clear amber color, medium sized a bit rough white to off-white head. Aroma is malts, hops, resinous hops. Taste malts, again resinous and piney hops, nice hop bitter, grapefruit lightly and a nice suitable bitter finish. Medium body and decent to medium carbonation. Just my kind of beer, I like this!
