Poured from a 16 oz can dated May 05, 2025.
Aroma is moderately fruity and hop forward with notes of melon (cantaloupe), papaya, guava, passion fruit and tropical citrus. Lighter dank, oily notes. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes.
Pours a hazy, murky, straw color with a large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers on the edges. Moderate lacing and small legs.
Flavor is somewhat sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes with a slightly bitter melon note being most prevalent along with lighter notes of papaya, guava, passion fruit and some lighter citrus notes. Light dank, oily notes.
Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid hazy IPA. Nice fruity hop notes, especially in the flavor. The aroma was slightly muted and the fruit didn't come through at first. Balanced sweetness and bitterness. Pretty easy drinking.
