REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Pours hazy light golden-orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered; sediment at the bottom of the can. Frothy white head; trace lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Tropical stone fruit (melon, mango) and berry, with complementing oaty malts. 4.5/5

Taste (40%): More oaty malt and partly diluted tropical at the start, then a lovely wave of tropical stone fruit and citrus. Aftertaste is the same citrus-stone fruit combo. 4.25/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied; good carbonation. Juicy with trace dry tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): An excellent IPA. Loving the tropical presence in this one, especially that burst that hits maybe two seconds after the sip. 4.25/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.313/5
