19.2 fl oz can. Pours a hazy yellow gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick curtains of soapy lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, orange zest, mango, pineapple and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, orange zest, peach, pineapple, mango and light pine in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average to soft carbonation. Juicy and easy to drink.

I have a stovepipe can located in the cooler at a convenience store outside Las Vegas a couple of months ago. Don’t know the makeup with this one so I’ll wing it. Tulip glass arrayed and I do the pour. Gold mostly maybe some orange too and a decent little head of icy white foam. I smell citrus, tropical too and a bit of hops. Tastes of more hoppiness than expected, lemons, a bit of guava, malt and marmalade. A nice enough sensation, I believe the moderately high abv contributes to that. Probably not a beer I seek out again but I’m enjoying this one.

355ml can. Pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Fruity aroma of caramel malt, orange, mango and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, grapefruit, pineapple, mango and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Solid.

Can sent by Elysian for review. Pours a hazy, almost cloudy white in a yellow envelope, thing layer of foam vs. the huge heads I usually get when pouring from a can. Nose of pineapple and guava, followed by slight piney hop. The taste is mildly malty, with hops coming to the forefront. The descriton mentions acidulated malt, and I think I catch that, adding a bitter puckery note that the hazy hops would be missing.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours light bright hazy gold with a transient white head. Aroma is citrus with a touch of berry. Medium body. Juicy and lightly sweet. Not quite enough bitterness for balance. Flavor seems citrus, green guava, and perhaps passionfruit. Decent.

12oz can from a random coffee place in Orange County, drank by the pool at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 13th April 2026. Only a light haze in my pale golden bodied IPA, wispy white head on top. Not too sure what I was expecting, more hop bitterness I suppose and more raw resin and citrus flavours, didn't really get that, but it's a decent enough IPA but it transport me back to the heady days of those first American IPA's where brewers just chucked hops at them.

Draft at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. Clearer than expected, but still a DIPA as far as I am concerned. Rich hops and very well balanced malts. More UK in style.

Pours golden brown with a thin white head. Aroma of pumpkin, cinnamon, coffee. Taste has sweetened coffee, some spices, nutmeg. Palate has much of the same, lingering spice on the body. Good.
