16 oz. can. Aroma a soft citrus, mild grain, pine. Flavor is a direct reflection. Mild pine bitterness. Yet, it shows a mild juicy texture. Slightly above average on a good day.

16 oz. can. Aroma is mild Orange with soft vanilla. It does have that Creamsicle fragrance going on. Flavor is orange, soft vanilla, maybe the lightest herbal hop in the finish. Alcohol is pretty hidden. The brewery did nail the mark of the Creamsicle IPA.

Can (no born on date on can but reason to believe 9/9/20) pour from Total Wine & More, W. Hartford. Appearance is cloudy light orange (tangerine juice) with nice sparkle at the edges of the glass, 3-finger rocky foam white head with good retention and spotty soapy lacing. Aroma is lemon citrus, light grapefruit. Taste follows aroma with lemon, nondescript fruit and milder dull pear. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin, smooth texture, soft carbonation and crisp, dry lightly bitter finish. Overall, have to cut this some slack due to age (was eager to tick the brewer so took a flyer) but while there are some OK features, not enough of them and fairly mild.
