Lawson's Liquids Sip of Sunshine IPA. Warren, Vermont 8% ABV.

Thanks to Cathy S. for this awesome treat!

Served chilled from a 16 oz can and poured into a tulip glass. Pours a hazy orange-amber color with a big three finger white foam head. Smell is sweet and citrusy, with hints of pineapple, mango and peach. Hop character is incredibly strong even in the aroma. Carbonation is moderate with a medium body. Taste is a tropical medley, with the previously mentioned flavors shining through, and a hop bomb as well. The combination of piney flavors and citrusy hops are rarely practiced this well. I really can only think of Heady and UPPERCASE as others who have done it so well. Finish is crisp and refreshing, with a piney flavor lingering.

Honestly one of the best beers I have ever had. There is a reason this is rated so highly on BA and other websites. Such a well balanced DIPA that has it all.

100/100
