Rating: 4/5
Notes: Very smooth and refreshing hazy IPA. The blueberry is very flavorful and strong which is great. Not overly sweet but a bit in there. The vanilla finishes off the taste very well. Only reason it doesn’t get a higher rating is because I’m 50/50 on vanilla personally. If you like or love vanilla then you’ll love this.
Can Art: Standard can.
Drinkage: 1 day after can release. 6 days after date on can.

Rating: 3.25/5
Notes: This one tastes too much like a fruit after thought. It has a distinct medicine type taste which really doesn’t sit well. Fruity and bright with some sweetness and not much hoppiness.

bit of tanginess in there from the fresh hops as expected but it works well with the juiciness.
Can art: Super cool design. Very modern and well made design
