Can that says Black Hog IPA. Passion fruit and some orange peel. Hazy golden pour with decent head. Hop tang finish. Decent body for NEIPA and nice all around. Can.

Pours amber with a thick white head. Light yeast notes. Taste has bitter lemon notes. Palate has tart and lingering spice on the nose. Dancing floral notes. Weird.

4 pack at parents house starting long weekend. Bright gold light clouds and one finger head. Nose is bright tropical fruit juice. Tastes of apricots, peach, grass, light herbal tones. Light bitterness. Texture more like a SIPA.

Fresh 16 oz. can. Aroma is bright with orange, mild grapefruit. Flavor has a good amount of orange, grapefruit, and mild herbs. Normal body and a moderate bitter finish. As it warms I get a hint of sour OJ. Best to drink colder.

Pours deep clear mahogany into a shaker. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving scant sheets. Toasted sourdough and chocolate aromas. Medium bodied with dark caramel and chocolate upfront turning to hot dark espresso in the lasting finish. Becomes cloying as it warms.
