Hazy straw yellow with a tall white head that settles to a fluffy but uneven blanket leaving all kinds of spiky lacing.

A unique stream water quality meets tropical juices and a light cannabic dankness, finishing overall bitter and pithy.

The frothy medium body comes to a semi-wet swallow where a hint of aspirin emerges as it warms.

Poured from a 16 oz can. While characterized as a pale ale, this is tough to place into once specific "box." Start out with significant hop bitterness but mellos to a more grapefruity taste... the best I could to to describe. Definitely worth checking out.

Pours a very hazy straw color with a white head that provides very nice lacing. The nose is a product of the Galaxy and Nelson Sauvin hops, with pineapple, lime, passion fruit, and lychee aromas.

The taste is tart as referenced on the can, with the lime and pineapple flavors forward and a nice sweet oat flavor at the end of the taste. The mouthfeel is a bit spritzy, which surprised me, and a bit watery, too, which was strange.

Overall, this falls into Session IPA/APA territory, and a bit sourish. Sorta. It’s literally between styles. A bit confusing, something I’ve not seen from Lawson’s.

Canned 7/28/20. Color is straw with a medium amount of haze to it. Not a ton of head, but what is there is fairly thick and hung around for a bit before leaving behind a very healthy amount of lacing. Smell is.....nondescript? Just not picking up much on the nose. It's not unpleasant, but also not particularly memorable. Taste is light and crisp. Some light hops, but nothing standing out in particular. Overall this is a solid, but fairly unremarkable beer. The kind you could have as a house beer and nobody would complain, nor would they rave about it.

16 ouncer with a 6-16-20 canning date.

Pretty typical looking high quality hazed up NEIPA pour.

A whiff of tart on the nose, along with grapefruit and lime.

Tart/fruity/jiucy/tropical...alot going on here...notes of more pineapple, grapefruit and mostly lime....refreshing and nicely crafted, well worth a try

Passion fruit turns the beer into a sour beer but not a pleasant sour. Won’t buy this again.
