REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Pours hazy peach-orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered; sediment at the bottom of the can. Frothy white head. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Assertive pulpy tropical citrus (orange-tangerine). 4.75/5

Taste (40%): Faint, light tropical to start. Tropical citrus then gradually intensifies through the aftertaste. Hint of controlled citrus bitterness. 4.5/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, good carbonation. Extremely juicy and smooth. 4.75/5

Overall (20%): An outstanding Double IPA. This rivals some of Stormbreaker's awesome hazy pale ales. the aroma may have been the best part for me, but the taste also delivered. 4.5/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.588/5
