Fairly hazy deep copper and bronze coloured body with a large two to three centimetre tall frothy tan head, covering the 75 per cent opaque glowing crimson and amber tint. Aroma of very strong syrup, resin, floral, citrusey and especially mangoey and melony characteristics with a good amount of malt and alcohol in the nose as well. Full-bodied; Super rich and sticky sweet flavours at first with pineapple juice, oranges, resin, honey and especially mangoes and papaya all coming through, especially at the end, with some rich malts, a light dose of hops, but this really is all about the super sweet and fruity notes. Aftertaste shows the alcohol, a lot of malts, some slightly dry and herbal elements, but a crisp floral note are the complexities that somehow make it past the rich malts, fruit, sweetness and pungency in this one. Overall, a strong and pungent, but very fruity and fairly easy-drinking beer, considering the alcohol here, but full of flavours and balanced relatively well. Great to try fresh-ish, from Ohio and a nice beer before my eventual 9000th rating! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Rozi's Wine House in Lakewood, Ohio on 31-July-2021 for US$4,10, canned on 03-February-2021 and sampled at my house back in Washington on 19-September-2021.

Ha ha, blueberry milkshake IPA ? NO WAY! When I pop the lid on this can its one big weird nose, something smells rotten? Well just a shade, if that. Whatever the smell is, its not attractive to my olfactory. HAs a big rocky craggy head that just wont fade. Its a cloudy hazy pale beer with just a tint of orange in there, barely. Yea its big IPA but the flavor of the blueberry tends to tame it a little, I think I may be getting some blueberry in there but its so one sided with the big ipa slam that its hard to feel the blue but its there. The taste of this sends me a little toward weird unliking it. Is almost rancid, again, just barely. Well, at least that's what its coming across like. JMHO. But remember, I don't care for IPA, I just thought I'd give this one a try. Something different I guess. There, you have it. BTW, when I burp near the end, its quite unpleasant hehehehh. Quite nasty overall beer tasting experience, certainly would never buy again. Almost triggers gag reflex near the finish. Whew. Good thing it has one thing going for it; a higher alky content that leaves a slight euphotic effect in the end.

Pour is a dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is ginger and a minor cinnamon. Flavor is some ginger and allspice. Nice spicy flavor. Not a huge spice but just enough to make this a decent beer.

Bottle thanks to George. Pours black with small beige head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is cocoa, peanut butter, roast, wood, bourbon. Slick body, similar flavors to nose, nice sweetness, enjoyed this.
