16oz can pours a pulpy yellow, plenty of creamy white head. Nose is good, if not a little unspectacular, fresh cream, some grass, lemon curd, orange creamcicle. Flavor has some tropicals, pineapple brulee, heavy oats, vanilla, orange sherbet, some Flintstones push pop. Finishes creamy with a little bit of abrasive bitterness.

Cask at the Great British Beer Festival 2019 - London. Pours deep brown with a small, off-white head. Has a nice chocolate pudding character, toasted peanuts, light toffee. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation; decent condition. OK balance to conclude, further cocoa notes. Enjoyable.

LCI. Acidic and not a great blend of flavors here, it was off and rough.

16 oz. Born on date: 09/07/20. Received in a trade with tfontana. Thanks bud. Flavor shows me a lot of sweet fruit. Apricot, tangelo, cantaloupe. Big malt backbone that adds sweetness on top of the already sweet fruit. The problem with triple IPAs is their normally to sweet. This rides that line for me.

Can (9/8/20) pour from the brewery. Appearance is dishwater yellow with no sparkle, 2-finger width off-white frothy foam head with decent retention and no lacing. Aroma is lemony citrus and mild yeasty esters. Taste is lemony citrus and late grain backbone. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, nothing's bad about this but it disappoints at almost every turn: large frothy foam head, lack of complexity of aroma and flavor, thin mouthfeel for the style. Not great for a DNEIPA.

16oz can from Halftime. Murky, hazy mustard color, finely beaded head. Aroma is tropical fruit, mango, melon. Taste brings a bit of dankness, stronger fruit flavors and some latent heat. Thick, creamy.

Can (9/2/20) pour from the brewery. Appearance is opaque dark yellow-light brown with tons of sparkle, 2-finger frothy off-white head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is initial apricot, fading to straw. Taste is moderate nondescript citrus, pine, malt backbone, yeast with mild fruity esters. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with frothy texture, soft carbonation, mild alcohol warmth and dry finish as taste. Overall, nice look but aroma is short-lived, taste is lacking a true identity and mouthfeel is just OK.

Can from tfontana, thanks for the trade. Lemony yellow with a slight haze and a thin bubbly white head that dissipates slowly. Citrus earthy grass and a hint of pine with a sweet bready malt an a bit of alcohol.
