Tap at bowsers. Very light pale & clear. Big hop BO nose. Taste is bitter citrus and a little watery. Its missing that typical viscous thing with most hoppy IPA. Not much pf an IPA fan, but that little bit of co2 makes it easier to take.

12oz can pours with a near clear gold body that supports a tall off white head of foam. The aroma offers up lemon, grapefruit, biscuit malts and citrus zest. The taste delivers moderately bitter grapefruit nuanced with tart lemon and orange peel. To midway a sliver of citrus juiciness and citrus hard candy try to be heard over the bitterness. Just OK.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 6/2/2017. Pours slightly hazy/cloudy medium golden/yellow color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice spotty foamy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, lemon zest, orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, lemon zest, orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, lemon/orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, biscuit, light honey, and floral/grassy earthiness for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly crisp balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6.4%. Overall this is a delicious IPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Really nice bright and lightly dank hops, balancing bready malts, and no residual sweetness. Never aggressive and more of an overall balanced west coast IPA. A very enjoyable offering.

Can from Total Wine, Lynnwood, WA
Cloudy blond color, small head. The aroma is all California IPA, there is crackery malt, delicate resiny hops, delicate fruits. Crisp mouthfeel, dry; very bold bitterness, with strong resiny component and some dankness; the bitterness in the final is a bit pithy.
Aggressive, excellent.

Slightly increasing dryness from hop/roast bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and slightly sticky/chalky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.5%. Overall this is a delicious coffee oatmeal milk stout. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt, coffee, lactose, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish. Very flavorful for the ABV and spot on to style, with plenty of coffee presence. A very enjoyable offering.
