Can to snifter.

LOOK: light yellow, mildly hazy, creamy off white head.
AROMA: grass, funky melon, touch of orange, some perfumy notes as it warms.
TASTE: touch of sour melon, bitter grass, veggie, ash, grapefruit.
FEEL: light to medium body, dusty?, weak carbonation..

not clean, a little all over the place. not quite my expectation for Vic Secret.

Picked-up a case of cans at Bradford's in Plymouth for around sixty dollars. Not sure of exact cost, because I had returns, & did not get receipt, but $60 is ballpark. This is one of my favorites from NS, good value, would definitely get again.

Canned 4/1/20

Night Shift is another one of those breweries that I like to try as much as I can from. They have appeal in the area specifically as they are local, but the brewery is over an hour away from me and I haven't made it out there yet, hope to once this covid shit clears up

This one pours a nice pale yellow/orange with 3 (!!) fingers of soapy white head that sticks around forever, leaving some patchy lacing as it goes down

Absolutely massive tropical fruit aromas, ripe pineapple, cantaloupe, and peach. No perceptible bitter aromas, but smells very fresh

The front of the sip is the same fruit onslaught as suggested in the nose with a crackery malt to hold it together. Mid palate takes a nice bitter turn but is balanced out by mild toffee notes. The finish is a combination of everything

Lightly carbonated and medium bodied, this is quite smooth. Not crushingly bitter but has an awesome bite. Finishes off dry

Overall this was pretty good, definitely some NEIPA tendencies here but a solid AIPA regardless

16 oz. can
Served in a 20 oz. tulip glass

*Quarantine 2020 *

I picked up this beer earlier in the weekly during my weekly shopping trip. I feel like I've enjoyed every beer I've tried from Night Shift, they're making some tasty beers.

Pours a hazy mustard yellow with a foamy head that quickly turns to a thin lace. Killer trails of sticky lacings are left behind after my first sip.

The nose is fragrant with whiffs of fresh fruit and a bouquet of roses.

Each sip of this is beer is thoroughly enjoyable with a toasted grain backbone and a super juicy hop profile. Think sweet peach, funky mango and freshly chopped citrus fruit.

Night Shift delivers once again
