Here you have mosaic at its best. Which great complexity and complete balance. You're not only on the passionfruit. You've got a lot of tropical fruits and berries notes.
The wheat base of the beer is nice, makes way for the mosaic but give structure to the whole thing

Pours a hazy, orange coloration with a medium, foamy head. Smells intensely of light biscuity malt and vibrant tropical and stone fruit notes of mango, passion fruit and peach, with the merest hint of pine. Taste is a fantastic balance of light biscuity malt and incredibly juicy and vibrant tropical, stone and lighter citrus fruit notes of mango, passion fruit, peach and tangerine, with just a hint of pine as well. Finishes with a light/medium bitterness and some tropical/stone/citrus notes lingering in the aftertaste. Soft, pillowy mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

This is one of those beers that you can smell from across the table and the taste matches the aroma with some incredibly juicy and vibrant tropical, stone and citrus notes, as well as a very nice, soft and pillowy mouthfeel. One of the best NEIPAs I've had in quite a while.

Pours a hazy dark yellow with soft head.

Smell is crisp and juicy with notes of ornges, pineapple, mango and a hint of licorice.

Taste is hoppy and juicy with notes of pineapple, mango and some chalkiness. Fruity all the way through with a hint of licorice on the end.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and well carbonated.

Overall, a nice, soft NE IPA, well made and balanced.
