REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light-orange into a taster glass. Unfiltered, white head, but virtually no lacing. 4.25/5

Smell (25%): Tart lilikoi (passionfruit) with milk sugar and vanilla present. 4.25/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose. Tart lilikoi-forward with complementing milk sugars and vanilla. Exactly what you'd expect. 4.25/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied, good carbonation. Creamy and juicy with slight dry tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): An excellent IPA. Full of tart passionfruit, and the sweetness of the vanilla and milk sugars give it a creamier, fuller body. 4.25/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.25/5
