REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Pours hazy peach-colored into a pint glass. Unfiltered, sediment at the bottom of the bottle. White head, some lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Sweet tropical berry with tangerine/grapefruit. Pilsner malts detected here. 4.25/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose. Tropical berry, tangerine, and grapefruit from start to finish, including the aftertaste. Very refreshing. Soft oaty malt backbone. 4.25/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, some carbonation. Juicy with slight dry tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): An excellent IPA. Tropical is the main star again here, and the soft malt backbone adds to the experience. 4.25/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.25/5
