A: The beer is hazy to cloudy yellow in color. It poured with with a quarter finger high white head that quickly settled down, leaving a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface and a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of papayas and tangerines are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has flavors of citrusy and tropical fruit hops including mangos, melons, papayas, and tangerines. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and somewhat "juicy" on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer has a good balance between the citrus and tropical fruits in both the smell and taste.

Pours a bright golden orange with a frothy white head that sticks around for a while.

Mango, papaya, orange, tangerine, strawberry, passionfruit, peach, lime, drank fruity weed. Slight fruity pebbles. It’s a nicely complex aroma that doesn’t leap out of the can, but invites you to stick your nose a little deeper into the glass to find more.

Dank weed, fruity pebbles, lime, lemon, mango, unripe pineapple. Herbaceous – lemongrass or muted Thai basil. I’m a big fan of the fruity dank weed profile in IPAs and this one hits the spot. There’s a bitterness on the back of the sip that brings balance to my palate and I really enjoy it.

Soft, medium body, nicely carbonated. Soft and smooth while not becoming pillowy, it stays drinkable while still providing the softness expected from NEIPAs.

Really damn good NEIPA. It’s not a brow-beater, meaning it doesn’t come flying out of the glass looking to assault your nose/tongue, but it has the same aspects in terms of having strong and complex aroma and flavor profiles. I definitely prefer it somewhere between fridge and room temperature, maximizing the aroma/flavor while not getting so warm that the carbonation feels muted or you lose the zip of the coolness.
