Very Green is an original Tree House Double IPA crafted with a carefully selected blend of Australian and American hops.
It pours with a dense yellow body in the glass and forms a thick meringue-lije head. It oprns in the glass with huge notes of ripe pineapple, pithy citrus, and dank saturated hops. As it warms it shows its depth and complexity. . . Sweet hints of malt intermingle with straight Tropicana juice. It has a soft but pointed bitterness and a rich, velvety mouthfeel. This is the very best beer we can offer you. A true one of a kind.

Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass.
Creamed white four to three finger tall filled head out of the can into the glass. Pill laced and fine bubbled, sitting on a simple opaque not quite turbid but faint caramel brown and tinged yellow color.
Delicious hop forward aroma, mostly minty with light touches of herbal like sweet tea. Touches even a little bit of bringing caramel malt to the table for balance too, and maybe some hinting fruit notes that are really covered over by this perfume like mint that really dominates. Very enjoyable and unique nose.
Oh is this palate gangbusters. Silky and perfect creamy texture, mixing with just the right amount of malt sweetness and depth to stay away from sugar and syrupy overtones. Juiced light pineapple and mint, with sweet flavors that go from vanilla to just about every tropical fruit flavor imaginable. Creamed mint and ice cream on the finish, and yes.. Wait for it… real hop bitterness that punctures through it all. Hits with just the right amount of herbal and mint green heat on the finish to contrast the sweetness perfectly.
Wow, real stunner just what I would want in a NEIPA also.

Pours that classic Tree House yellowish orange opaqueness. Has the aroma of the orange flavored jelly beans. Maybe a touch of earthiness beneath the mostly tropical and citrus aroma. This really reminds me of Green and doesn't really "feel" bigger. It's citrusy with lot of zest qualities. Perhaps some textured minerality. It's dry so I don't get as much tropical fruit or fleshy citrus as other Galaxy forward beers. Ultimately, this is just good but not great.

Appearance: Pours a cloudy goldenstraw with a two finger head; strong retention and a few shards and squiggles linger
Smell: Tropical notes of mango, pineapple and orange rind; dank and somewhat grassy
Taste: Tropical fruit forward with the mango and pineapple leading the impression; through the middle, there is bitter orange rind; the finish is a bit green (might I say very green) with a grassy aspect
Mouthfeel: Meidum to full body and creamy; moderate carbonation with some hop burn
Overall: Decent but not among my favorites from Tree House due to the hop burn in the finish; I am somewhat surprised as I have really enjoyed the other beers I have tasted in the "Green" series
