473 ml can. Pours a bright clear gold with light head. Aromas of juicy melons, wine guns, candied citrus, resin and biscuity malts. Flavors of dank hops, tropical fruit, candied lemons, and dry toasty malts. Very good modern IPA.

Changing listing from a Hazy IPA to a West Coast IPA based on this sampling and a look at UNTAPPD

473 ml can. Pours a copper color with moderate head. Aromas of bready caramel malts, dull citrus and soft resiny pine. Flavors of pine, dried grapefruit, and bready malts. Bitter finish. A nice simple, malty old school IPA.

473 ml can. Pours a deep dark reddish brown with full head. Aromas of baking spices, copper, dry honey, and toasted malts. Flavors follow same but overall quite metallic and thin with quite a bitter finish. Like a Gruit…

473 ml can. Pours an opaque whitish yellow with short head. Aromas of melons, pithy orange, and wheaty malts. Flavors of same with a bit of sharp resin. It’s a poorly labelled Hazy. Why can’t breweries label properly! Minus points.

473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with full head. Aromas of lemon zest, pine resin, and biscuity malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on pine. Clean and easy to drink with a body more like a Pale Ale. Quite nice.

330 ml bottle. Pours a dull copper with huge head that settles quickly. Aromas of oranges and biscuity malts. Flavors follow same with some additional acidic fruit (carambola?) and resin. Interesting, but murderous carbonation rips at the tongue.
