REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered, some sediment at the bottom of the can. White head; trace lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Tropical citrus orange and stone fruit with complementing resin and oaty-wheat malts. 4.5/5

Taste (40%): Light resin at the start, then more wheat malt in the middle. Finishes with a wave of citrus orange and tropical stone fruit. Citrus continues into the aftertaste. 4.25/5

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

Overall (20%): An excellent IPA. Tropical is the larger star here. You'll get some resin and malts as well, each having their moments to shine. 4.25/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.338/5
