Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours gold with a decent white head. Aroma is apricot with a spice note. Med body. Flavor is mostly apricot - to include skin - but there are banana and spice notes. Somehow I'm not really getting wheat for a long time. Apricot skin is pretty pesistent.

Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours clear gold with a moderate foamy white head. Aroma of watermelon, not to exclude rind. Arguably med body. Flavor is watermelon with a touch of rind, and something suggesting a bitten seed. Wheat is present, but not prominent. Refreshing it is. Otherwise ....

Can (10/13/23) pour from Valley Beverage. Cloudy dark yellow with nice sparkle, decent head w/fair retention and light lacing. Aroma is fruit, pineapple rind, mild cracker. Taste follows aroma with mild bitterness. Smooth texture w/average carbonation and finish as taste. God strength and fair complexity.

Can from a liquor store by the beach in San Diego. Super dark, big tan head, cocoa roasted nose. Pretty dry with slim body, flavor a bit like American filter coffee. Could use a bit more sweetness to be honest. Rather one dimensional moderate-roast-coffee flavor but it's not bad.

Can purchased at silver strand liquor, drunk after walking in Annie's Canyon and playing in the sand at north La Jolla. I bought it for the turtles theme, hope it's good! Should have been rating #1989 but here we are a decade late, #1999. Pretty clear dark golden amber, moderate head. Citrusy, slightly tropi caramel laced nose. Malty start for sure, bitterness in check for WC IPA. Well rounded flavor, mid body but not super complex. Flavor is not too long lasting except a tinge of grapefruity bitterness at the back end. Turtle Power mothaf.....!

25th July 2023, on-tap at the Doho Bar on Dana Point Beach. Plastic cup! Clear golden body, white affair on top. Nice, easy blend, some battering hops and sweetening malts; nothing exciting or note worthy, but a pleasant 'in the sunshine' Blonde.

On tap, 16oz's into a plastic beaker at the Doho bar on the beach at Dana Point, California on 26th July 2023. Hazy golden orange, fast fading white head. Citrus nose and taste, great in the afternoon sun while the grand children played on the beach.

US pint can, drank on 21st July 2023 at my daughters in Laguna Hills. Light haze in the golden body, white head. Citrus front to this hoppy IPA, both the aroma and taste are dominated by the hops and it's a fairly bitter example of the style.
