22oz bottle poured into a tulip glass.

A- A cloudy amber/orange with a fantastic off white head that clings all over the place.

S- big notes of orange and apricot with some mango in there as well. The coconut is in there, but if you didn't know this was a coconut IPA, I doubt you'd identify it.

T- Coconut is certainly there more in the taste, but is very much dominated by the hop bill. Orange, apricot, and red grapefruit abound. Grapefruit bitterness is a bit too pronounced.

S- Pretty dry. Medium bodied. The grapefruit bitterness is a bit metallic on the back end.

O- Exactly what I saw in other reviews. The bitterness of the hops is too pronounced, covering up the coconut. It's a good IPA, but could have been great.

I was honestly surprised by this beer. An IPA mixed with just the right amount of alcohol. The coconut was sweet but not too sweet and it helped balanced the bitterness level of this IPA. The coconut flavor reminded me of something you would taste in Almond Joy, it's sweet but acceptable. This is a really fun beer and I recommend it. I hope they rerelease it in the future.
