REVIEW:
Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light orange into a pint glass; looks like orange juice. Unfiltered, sediment at the bottom of the can. White head, trace lacing. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Resinous tropical stone fruit and citrus, with pine. 4.25/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose. Resinous forward, with tropical stone fruit complementing. Citrus (with resin) comes back on the aftertaste through the senses.. 4.25/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-full bodied, good carbonation. Very juicy with some dry tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): An excellent IPA. Big fan of the tropical and resinous blend here. Bonus points for the citrus at the back end. 4.25/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.263/5
