12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 1/2019. Pours very hazy/cloudy deep golden/amber/light orange color with a 1-2 finger dense and creamy off white head with amazing retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, allspice, berries, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, vanilla, cream, maple syrup, brown sugar, marshmallow, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/topical hops, maple syrup, allspice, vanilla, and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, allspice, berries, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, vanilla, cream, maple syrup, brown sugar, marshmallow, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Mild pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, allspice, berries, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, vanilla, cream, maple syrup, brown sugar, marshmallow, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/topical hops, maple syrup, allspice, vanilla, and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and lightly slick/sticky mouthfeel that is great. Mild increasing warmth of 8.6% after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic flavored milkshake DIPA! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/topical hops, maple syrup, allspice, vanilla, and bready malt flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to drink with the mellowly bitte/spicy/drying finish. Great soft feel, not overwhelming on any aspect. Amazing balance of juicy Citra/Mosaic hops, maple syrup, vanilla, allspice, and wheat/oat/malts. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example as expected. Just as impressive as the rest of their milkshake IPA variations, but a bit more drying from spice.

Pales in comparison to Québec maple, but way better than Airbnb maple. Basically think about getting your favorite hazy, mixing it with 1:4 of fancy maple syrup. This is delicious as it is overly sweet but the IPA continues to balance it. Comes close!

10/19/18, no lactose? Nicely juicy and with added fresh orange notes. And fruity burps. Tasty stuff!
