Tons of caramel. Wayyy too much. Smell doesn't have much hops at all. Booze level didn't treat this IPA kindly. Sweet finish. Slightly hazy golden pour with ok head. Can. 66667 3.1

2 month old can
A: Murky yellow with a short loose head holding up pretty well and leaving spotty lace.
S: Bright tangerine citrus with faint tart berries and a hint of sugar.
T: Mildly bitter grapefruit and lemon citrus pith. Just a touch of pineapple astringency.
M: Soft carbonation, light body and smooth texture.
O: Nice citrus kick and restrained use of pineapple makes for a pretty good hazy.

Bottle. Caramel malt aroma with notes of brown sugar, dark fruit, toffee and some booze. Pours clear copper colored with a finger of tan head that has excellent retention and some lacing. Starts with caramel, brown sugar and toffee flavors as well as having a medium body and smooth mouthfeel. Finishes smooth with dark fruit and some boozy flavors. Pretty nice strong ale, but very sweet.
