At Total Wine in Santa Fe I was able to purchase this 12 oz can fairly recently. Stamped on the bottom is a pkg date of 5/30/22. I'm using my New Belgium tulip glass to catch this pour, a fairly clear, medium yellow body followed up by a slowly descending head of fully white foam. Though not exactly a big fan of IPAs, this beer has a nice scent of yellow fruit, grass, some pininess, and meadow. The drink is even better, I am a bit surprised. Tropical fruit, peaches, white bread, malt and a substantial hops presence, nice in this day and time. Noticeably bitter and a bit dry. Good.

Gold with a frothy, white head. Subdued cardboard and caramel aroma with a hint of fruitiness. Taste is bitter, herbal, with a bit of resin. Medium-bodied, moderate carbonation, good chewiness. Pretty good except for the underwhelming aroma, which probably didn’t get any better with 5 months in the cellar.
