16 oz can. Aroma is catty, piney, pineapple, dank. Pours lightly hazy golden with a one finger bone-white head with decent retention. Taste has a high pithy bitterness backed by insignificant crackery malt sweetness.

12 ounce can from Tavour. Chestnut brown pour. Frothy tan head. Excellent lacing. Sweet roasted malt aroma hints at dark dried fruits and toffee. Flavor is dried dark cherries, caramel, toasted nuts. Sticky mouthfeel, spicy hops. Lacks the earthy, peaty malt character associated with the style. Tasty, nonetheless.

12 oz can. Aroma is packed with lime, a little grain, grass. Pours clear pale golden with a two finger cream-white soapy head with great retention. Taste has a light tartness from the lime, complimenting a grassy malt backbone; faint hop bitterness. Thin bodied, crisp, clean, and refreshing.

Draft pint at the Virginia Inn, Seattle on 11th August 2025. Taken with a lovely Lamb Ragu, sat outside. Slight haze to the golden pour, white affair on top for a while. Piney resinous feel with a grapefruit overtone, some malty notes in there too. Overall a nice IPA and it did go nicely with the meal.
