16 oz can. Aroma is a mix of pineapple, peach and mild herb-like pine. The flavor shows a good amount of juicy fruits with a very light undertone of pine. No resin, thankfully. I will admit as it warms it gets pretty sweet. That said the alcohol is lightly noticeable. Overall, pretty good.

Another DIPA from Half Time, my main source these days it seems. A snifter I got at Great Heights in Houston is ready, I open the can...and Vesuvius erupted. All over the place. I managed to salvage about 2/3rds of the pint can. Be aware. The view is a semi-hazy light yellow-gold body with a generous cover of icy white foam surviving much later after the event. I smell a healthy amount of pine along with some citrus thrown in. At least, the payoff is the taste. There is pine bark, grapefruit, grain, malt, lemons, a bit of pineapple and a lesser amount of papaya. Ah, I do enjoy an old-school IPA, even if it is a reduced amount.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Pineapple syrup, apricot and peach aromas. Sweet peach and pineapple upfront turning to hot syrup in the lasting finish.

4 oz draft. Aroma is orange and orange peel. Flavor is a more tone down version of the OJ. Simply a nice easy drinking 4 % IPA. Would be a fantastic beach beer!

16 oz can. Aroma and flavor are very similar to the juicy fruit gum. Orange, pineapple, and maybe mango-ish like hints. Texture is juicy with a very light herb hop in the finish. No flaws. Overall, it is respectable.
