We introduce ALPACA, a Lorentz invariant parton cascade encoding the AMY effective kinetic theory of QCD at high temperatures. It solves the Boltzmann equation by explicitly simulating the evolution of parton ensembles corresponding to single events. We discuss how the effective masses and temperature entering the elastic collision and splitting/merging rates can be estimated from just a single event. We perform an extensive validation of the framework by showing that it reproduces the expected behaviour in thermal equilibrium.
