A treat from Brad and Angela, thanks guys!
Aromas and flavors are citrus, stone fruit, resin and a bit of MJ. Flavors are similar to nose, slightly more sweet than bitter and carbonation leans soft but still very drinkable.

Aromas are subdued and dark malt, roast, coffee, fudge plus a little molasses. Flavors are very much like nose, coffee comes out more along with a touch more sweet. Nothing special at all. Not bad just unimaginative.

The aromas are a nice blend of citrus and resin hops with some pale malt in the back. Flavors are similar to nose but better. Citrusy sweet with good carbonation and body. Finish follows flavors. A bit dank also. Nice beer.

Aromas are fresh resin and citrus hops with a malt background. Flavors are bittersweet with lots of fresh citrus and resin hops. Full bodied and good drinking.

12 oz can, 2.49 @ John's Grocery. Frothy, rocky head over a very hazy gold beer. Sticky resin nose, a bit of warmth in the scent. Similar big resiny taste, with some malt and alcohol in the rear. Not much fizz. Smudged canning date looks like Feb. 22, and hops may be just starting to go stale. But a pleasant double IPA nonetheless.
