L: Very hazy golden, yellow color, quarter finger white head, amazing thin lacing, no visible carbonation. A wonder toblook at.

S: Tropical fruits, sweet, hops. Wonderful.

T: Tropical fruits, hoppy, bitter. A different take on a NEIPA but sure!

F: Medium to full bodied, full flavored.

O: A superb IPA.

16oz can, date stamped 07/24/2019. A tall & rocky off-white head caps an opaque & murky pineapple juice colored ale; thick lacing is left on the glass. Aroma is zesty, tropical, dank green hops. Great Galaxy and Citra hop flavors meld well on the palate with notes of zesty passion fruit & grapefruit, lemon-lime, melon, grassy green hops, and a but of pineapple; malts take a back seat to this huge burst of hops! Full body, creamy, smooth, and still resinous; soft carbonation; moderately bitter finish. Wow factor with this one! Excellent in so many ways!

 

 

Enjoying a bomber from the Dojo--a second batch released March 29. Pour is just about perfect for the style, a pale marigold color, clouded, with a full finger of rocky head and great retention. Fluffy mouthfeel, but only a touch of sharpness from hop burn is holding it back. Galaxy and Citra make quite a duo, as expected, resulting in a burst of citrus and tropical fruits only tempered by some very light floral and grassy notes. Great collaboration, I hope they'll brew this again.

 

 

 

 

22 ounce bottle into a tulip snifter. Had 8/15/18.

Looks like an orange/grapefruit juice combo. Pours a nice two inch foamy head with some foamy lacing. Aromas of orange, grapefruit, mango, light pineapple, a little malt. Smells lightly dank, a light sweet aroma when warm. The flavor is similar- orange, grapefruit, malt, less mango than the nose, some pineapple. A decent amount of hop bitterness that lingers, somewhat dank. Refreshing, smooth, a good lighter body, well carbonated.

Really good NE IPA, bursting with juice aroma and flavor. Great hop blend. Well worth a purchase.

 

Pours a very hazy golden yellow with tons of white foam and lacing down the glass. An active beer. The smell is grassy and dank hops, with orange, lemon, grapefruit, clementine and aloe, best aspect of the beer besides look. Taste was balanced and blended, with hops, fruit, yeasts, and high carbonation all giving it a pale soda finish. Little thin and carbonated for style, and despite full flavoring it felt airy and unanchored at the end of sips.

 

 

L: completely hazy and murky. Golden yellow in color. Huge amounts of head formed from a fairly simple pour. As I drink the beer, heaps of lacing is left behind which is something I really like.
S: Big aromas if lemon, grapefruit, and tangerine. Slight earthyness to the smell, with minimal hop presence. Mostly citrus on the nose.
T: follows the nose. Full on citrus initially, with a subtle hoppy finish that meshes with a lingering orange-like sweetness. The after taste is similar to that after drinking orange juice. Hops are slightly piney and lemongrassy.
F: incredible. Just as I want a majority of my NEIPAs to feel like. Soft, smooth, pillowy and full. Great heft to the beer. Not as gritty as it would look. Very enjoyable.
O: A very well made brew. Something I would drink again if given the chance. The nose and flavor aren’t anything groundbreaking per say, but the mouthfeel is something to write home about. I am very grateful to have tried. Cheers!
