Sweet tropical hoppy, lemony citrus, and an earthy-dank nose on this one! Taste follows with a pineapple juice hoppy and lemon citrus bitter finish....just a touch of citrus boozy bitterness lingers on the roof of the mouth. This is juicy-soft and pretty balanced between the hops. Really good!

L - Creamy, opaque light yellow with a thin creamy white head that dissipates somewhat quickly.
S - Sweet pineapple and tropical fruit notes along with grass, and bitter pine
T - Follows the nose: tropical fruit notes - pineapple predominantly but leaning more towards earth notes as well as grass and piney, bitter hops.
F - Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Smooth, creamy
O - A pretty straight up great, yet standard NEIPA

Beautiful hazy straw/pineapple juice appearance. Green cantaloupe/orange/watermelon sorbet on nose. Taste follows with a prickly semi tart finish. Very bubbly on the tongue and wished it finished a bit more lush. Monkish is a roaring super car where Tree House is a Rolls Royce both very sought after with different experiences.

Canned 10/18/19
L: Hazy and murky dull yellow. Looks thick, viscous and muddy. Can definitely tell this has been triple dry-hopped. Less than a finger of head with zero lacing.
S: Peach, nectarine, pomegranate, mango, passion fruit, and orange all prevalent with healthy amounts of grassy hop character. The combination of tropical and stonefruit is refreshing, backed up by bountiful aromas of earthy, grassy hops.
T: Just as juicy and hoppy as the nose lends. Orange, banana, papaya, pear, pineapple and yeast dominate the flavor with mild hints of honey, apricot and florally presence on the finish. You can definitely taste the dry hopped hop pellets but it works incredibly well here.
F: Incredible. Smooth, full, lofty and pillowy. Medium in body, heavier end of medium in weight. Zero booze, amazing feel with mild grit.
O: This isn't even a week old in the can and it is drinking splendidly. Can't imagine how much better it will be a little down the line since I can't complain at how it's drinking now. Perhaps one of the best TDH beers I've yet to try. Full, juicy and hoppy all at the same time with amazing aroma. I am very glad to try and would most certainly drink again/recommend. Cheers!
