Pours hazy gold with a huge, fluffy, white head. Immediate, and intense, aroma of oranges, some mango. Taste has immediate notes of Azteca, some smokey hop oils, citrusy. Palate has lots more of that smokey hop oils, some spice, more citrus, all lingering on the nose. Good.

375 mL cork and cage bottle. Thanks, Ian! Pours a murky, orange color, with a big, foamy, beige head. The aroma is tangerine, lime zest, leather, cinnamon, and sage. Sweet and juicy, with a bright, sour flavor. A little bitterness. Medium body, crisp, and pulpy. Solid and fun.

A 12 oz can found on the rack at HEB earlier today, bbd of 11/26/22. If an adjunct is to be used in an IPA, I do not mind pineapple, my opinion. Using a snifter this extremely warm afternoon, the look is a semi-opaque, nice gold color with a sustaining, off-white skim of foam. The smell is obviously pineapple, nothing else is breaking through. And the drink is pleasant enough, pine, pineapple, crackers and water. Actually this is a decent break from the seemingly never ending line of hazy brews.
