Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer does not pour hazy instead it pours a clear yellow-orange color with a one finger head of puffy white foam. The head has a decent level of retention, fading over time and leaving a decent level of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is rather strong of tropical fruits of mango, pineapple, and papaya, mixed with smells of orange citrus. Along with these smells comes a bit of breadiness and some light vanilla, as well as some aromas of honeydew and cantaloupe.
Taste – The taste begins with a slightly malty bready flavor mixed with lots of tropical fruit of papaya and mango, and a whole lot of tangerine. At the same time there is a little bit of peach and apricot as well as some hop flavors of a grapefruit and herb. As the taste advances some of the melon in the nose comes to the tongue, all while the tropical fruits fad a tad. At the same time, more grapefruit and orange join in and with a little bit of pine, one is left with a somewhat citrusy and moderately hopped taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is on the thicker and chewier side with a carbonation level that is rather low. For the style and the flavors the feel is rather nice and makes for a nice flavorful sipper.
Overall – A rather decent drinker overall. While not one to search out for, it is rather easy drinking and flavorful. At least worth a try.

C / AVERAGE

This seasonal beer is amazing. If you like Electric Jellyfish, this one puts it to shame.

 

 

poured from can into pint glass.

A: slightly hazy, golden body, and a billowy white head with low retention and patchy amounts of lacing, leaving a foam cap across the surface
S: decent hop punch and light citrus peachy grapefruit shades that fade into a slight earthy pine. malty sweetness rounds it out
T: follows the nose. peachy citrus tropical hop and caramel sweet malt, ends in earthy grapefruit hop bittersweetness with a low backing of pine.
F: fair amount of carbonation. medium-thick body. a slight dry finish with a minimal coating

Overall (personal opinion):
this is a fairly balanced hazy NEIPA that goes light on the haze and trades assertive flavors in favor of being generally agreeable and pleasant. there is a floral nuance here to also be appreciated.
