REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light orange into a pint glass. White head, trace lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Sweet tropical (orange, tangerine, and passion fruit) with trace floral. 4/5

Taste (40%): Slightly dank/malty tropical experience. Flavor drops off just before the aftertaste. Aftertaste has some orange and tangerine. 4/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, some carbonation. Very juicy mouthfeel, with a little dry tongue. 4.5/5

Overall (20%): An awesome IPA. It was a nice experimental from Mazama, but I would like to see more of the tropical asserted from start to finish if they did this one again. 4/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.063/5
