Can pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! A cloudy yellow with light, lazy sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with excellent retention and light lacing. Smells of muted pineapple with mix of sweet and tart lemony citrus. Taste is strong, tangy citrus and overripe pineapple rind, later bitter pine and cracker. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation and mostly bitter and cracker finish. Overall, some nice elements here with taste exceeding aroma by a tick. A bit too carbonated and too bitter for the style.

Can from Colonial Hazy murky lemon straw color with a huge frothy bone white head that persists. Big citrus and earthy pine with a solid bready malt to back it up. Light chunk and alcohol in the feel.

Draught at the EBF: pours light haze with white head. Aroma is citrus and herbal. Taste is similar, herbal, sort of bitter.

Undated can drunk 5/9/18.
Clear, normal, WC IPA look. Brass-blonde with a small white head showing low retention.
Smells like pine and grapefruit. Tastes like pine and grapefruit. High bitterness robs any enjoyment from me and while not every IPA needs to be NE style, I will never understand palate-fatiguing, unbalanced bitterness with no accompanying strong, supple, moderately sweet malt. This is otherwise, well-constructed, but I can't even take more than a few sips. Engaging carbonation, dry, somewhat malty, no booze. All pine and raw citrus finish.
