Poured from a 16 oz can with a 04/2017 date (specific date is unreadable). Aroma is super hop forward with tons of tropical fruit and some light citrus notes. Lots of guava, mango, melon, tangerine, mandarin and passion fruit. Light peach notes with a hint of an herbal, resin note. Hints of alcohol spice. Pours a rather hazy, dull, pale, straw color with a medium large, thick, white head that exhibits really nice retention as it slowly recedes to a thin film that lingers. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor has a light sweetness with some light cracker malt notes and hints of white bread. Medium to medium low bitterness with hints of alcohol spice. Moderately string hop notes with mango, melon, passion fruit and guava. Hints of orange and tangerine with a light resin note in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a very tasty DIPA, though I prefer a more complex hop profile from using more than just citra. Really fruity hops though with great tropical fruit notes and lighter citrus.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated April 12, 2017. Aroma is super hop forward and fruity. Lots of mango, papaya, orange, mandarin, tangerine, and peach with hints of melon. Light cracker malt notes with a bit of a white bread note as well. Hints of alcohol spice. Pours a fairly hazy, pale yellow-golden straw with a medium large, thick, pillowy white head that recedes slowly to a thin film that lingers. Moderately high lacing and small legs. Flavor has a light sweetness with a somewhat dry finish with a medium note of crackers with a light graham cracker note. Moderate bitterness with some light alcohol spice. Light oily, grassy note to the hops. Lots of mango, peach, tangerine and mandarin. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really nice IPA. So much hop flavor and aroma, but the flavor doesn’t really live up to the aroma and has a bit of a grassy, oily note to it.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated 04/19/2017. Aroma is super hop forward and juicy with tons of orange, tangerine, mango, passion fruit and papaya. Some light dank resin notes. Light cracker malt notes in the background. Pours a super murky, pale, dull golden straw color with a medium sized, fairly thick, white head that recedes to a thin film that lingers. Light lacing and small legs. Flavor is moderately sweet with some cracker malt notes to balance the large amount of hop flavors and moderately strong bitterness. So much juicy hop character with some light resin notes. Lots of tangerine, orange, mango and papaya. Lingering citrus, hop resin and sweet grain notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, this is super delicious. So much hop flavor and aroma with just the right amount of malt profile. Its an ugly ass beer though.

Tap at gourmet Haus. Clear light copper with minimally retained head but nice patterns. Pine and tropics. No bitterness on the flavor. Almost crisp like a large for this ABV is amazing.
