Pours a light hazy deep golden olour and a dense off white head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma's of citrus, resin, flowery hops, light malt. Retronasal it's resinous, citrussy, bitterish. Flavour is moderate bitter and flowery with a touch of malty sweetness. Medium bodied. Good carbonation. Long bitter finish. Solid Westcoast IPA.

Can 33cl. @home poured into a shaker. Slightly unclear, small frothy off-white head, mostly diminishing, thin layer around the rim remains, fair lacing. Aroma pale malt, orange, passion fruit, mango, lychee, grassy hops. Taste medium sweet and above medium bitter, orange, lemon, grapefruit, resinous notes. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, fruity bittersweet aftertaste, resinous notes, well-made and well-balanced, very nice.

Lively and messy out of the can into a hazy golden orange in the glass with a big off white head. Aroma of green weedy hops, really fresh and nice upfront on the aroma. Goes into a light moderate sweet and nicely above moderate bitter flavour. Medium bodied with light carbonation.
