UPDATED: MAY 5, 2021 Can. Golden-orange, massive head. Nice aroma, fruity and light, Bit of an earthen twist, into the flavors, as well. Chewy. Peach rind dominates, a bit of melon, more peach rind. Hides its 9% well. (#7959, 5/2021)

UPDATED: SEP 17, 2020 This is an almost perfect IIPA, high in IBU's , but not tasting like it. Nice ABV without the alcohol taste. Nice tropical taste, light-to-medium mouth feel and tropical aroma. What more could you want from a IIPA!

UPDATED: MAR 11, 2020 Good whiff of sawdust, pine, lemon and grapefruit. slight haze to the shiny yellow body Flavors of orange, pine, alcohol and honey--don't quite all blend. A little dry and light on the mouthfeel. $3 for 16 oz can good deal.

UPDATED: FEB 15, 2020 Can from Total Wine in Mountain View, CA. Aroma is marmalade and toast, pine, tropical fruit. Taste is mild honey, marmalade, citrus peels. Pretty nice marmalade, resin and bready notes.

UPDATED: NOV 30, 2019 On tap at B&B. Slightly hazy pour. Frothy head that lingers for a while. Very clean and crisp taste. Pineapple and citrus. Pretty nice.

UPDATED: NOV 28, 2019 Can. Pours golden orange with a white head. Light pithy and flowery hops, moderate bitterness, faint botanicals, a hint of marmalade, and a balanced finish. Decent.

UPDATED: SEP 13, 2019 Can. Pours a golden color with medium head. Nice lacing. Aroma of slight orange citrus hop. Medium heavy bitterness. Nice malt backbone. Very nice.

UPDATED: AUG 19, 2019 Outstanding and so nice to have something other than a NEIPA. a bit boozy, straightforward hops with a nice clean finish. Not much head

UPDATED: AUG 9, 2019 Canned from K&B. Dank hop character up front. Thick and syrupy mouthfeel. Good bitterness throughout. A little bit of fruitiness as well. Alcohol is well hidden.

UPDATED: JAN 14, 2019 DATE: January 13, 2019... OCCASION: a good weekend ends with my second Mother Earth night--this one less peanut buttery, more ABV... GLASSWARE: Maudite snifter....pours almost half a glass of thick, snowy white head that refuses to back down--yet once it does, it leaves a craggy set of flares and ridges... its body is a golden orange sun, nearly opaque and populated with frozen bubbles.... gigantic grapefruit, mango and lemon... butterscotch, dandelion, hay, bubblegum, and soft herbal notes... the malts are spry and light, almost like a cracker.... no doubt, its resin is present too, but this really is a tropical approximation of an imperial IPA... sips at a medium-bodied, bitterly delightful rate... its mouthfeel is slightly dry, the movement is oily, and yes, it rattles the teeth well after the glass returns to its resting place... where is the 9% ABV?! the grapefruit and mango arrest the senses... the resin is luscious and reverberating, with a juiciness that wins... the hops crush, and its sunny disposition makes this a repeater--I will seek this out again, and hopefully in growler form to check its freshness... demonstratively West Coast, this is a win....
