Poured from a 16 oz can; no birth date given. Golden opaque yellow with consistent 1 finger head of foam. Tastes of light subtle fluffy marshmallow with fruity hops on the rear end. Not too bad. Worth trying.

Poured into a 16 oz Nordic pint glass not sure when it was canned. Pours a hazy yellow with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves thin streaks of lace with solid retention. 4
Aroma is peach, mango, pineapple, and apricot. 3.75
Taste follows peach, mango, pineapple, and apricot. 3.75
Mouthfeel is about medium, a tad sticky not dry, soft gentle carbonation, and at 6% it goes down really easy. 4
Overall a nice hot weather crusher, nothing dazzling but still a nice NEIPA. 3.75

Can to becher pint glass.
The appearance was a fabulous looking murky yellow color with a two finger white foamy rocky head. Super slow dissipation with a mellow messy lace roaming all around my glass.
The aroma had some grassy hop spice rolling through some iced mango to pineapple notes. Extremely light on the malt, but that's there.
The flavor leaned towards the hop spice, semi-dry with a crisp sort of bite nibbling at onion skin and a faint dose of pineapple juice. Aftertaste of dried onion, pineapple, grassy bitterness and mango.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a certain dryness about it. Nice appropriately low carbonation. Finishes crisp with some dry grassy hop particles, pineapple and a smidgen of onion.
Overall, I'd say nicely done American IPA or yes, perhaps a New England styled one depending upon who you talk to.
