REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Poured hazy orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered. White head, some lacing. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Tropical sweet citrus (orange, tangerine, grapefruit) with creamy malt. 4/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose. Assertive sweet citrus from start to finish. Slight creamy malt presence in the middle. More sweet tropical on the aftertaste. 4.25/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium bodied, good carbonation. Very juicy with trace dry tongue. 4.5/5

Overall (20%): An awesome to excellent IPA. Got to a few fresh hop beers during Fresh Hop Season (late August through early October). Delicious tropical here made me want to buy more of these cans. 4/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.175/5
