16oz (thx, Josh) @ Ryan's on his 39th celebration.
Aroma: daaank (Farees' positive approval level).
Taste: along the same lines with noticeable bitterness, grassy, a bit flowery, some cat pees.
Overall: meh.

Can pour. Pours hazy pale yellow with a white head. Super dank nose with lots of juicy tropical fruits. Flavour is juicy and dank with notes of tropical fruit, some pine, dank oils. Nice, I really like the hop expression.

First review of the beer! Tap at Out of the Barrel in San Carlos. Overt dank aroma and flavor. Fresh hop awesomeness. Slushy light yellow. Nice lacing.

Poured from a 16 oz can with an illegible can date of July, 2025.
Aroma is hop forward with notes of pineapple, guava, tropical citrus, and passion fruit. Moderate dank, oily resin notes with some pine. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes.
Pours a hazy, dull, straw color with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers.
Flavor is a bit sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderately high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes, mostly dank, oily resin and grapefruit. Lighter notes of guava, pineapple, passion fruit and tropical citrus. Hints of pine.
Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a decent hazy IPA with more of a West Coast hop profile. Some fruity hop notes compliment the sweet malt notes. Balanced bitterness and alcohol notes.
