IPA brewed with Citra. Flooded with the unmistakeable aroma and flavor of Citra hops. Big tropical fruit accompanied by a smooth, dry finish. Hazy on purpose, delicious by intent.

Citrus scent with a piney citrus taste to match. Smooth.

Hazy gold like pineapple juice, extremely strong grapefruit smell and taste (also confirmed by my wife). Tasty, hoppy but not too harsh. Pleasant all the way through the sip. Very good, easy to drink!

Pours a light hazy golden color with a nice head and lacing
Aroma has generous tropical and citrus hints
The taste follows the nose with a well balanced tropical and citrus flavor
A medium bodied well carbonated beer
A great NEIPA

Juicy looking pour. The color seems a bit lighter golden. It really looks like a glass of pineapple juice, but with a very frothy and fluffy 2 finger white head. The beer has great head retention, and there's a good amount of lacing on the glass.
To be honest, I'm not getting much on the nose. It's a fairly faint citrus hop aroma.
Taste - There's a citrus flavor to this beer due to the hops, and I think it's tangerine that I'm getting from the hops. The flavor from the hops really keeps building in my throat, and on my taste buds. The flavor lingers in my throat, and I just keep tasting it.
The body is juicy and also has a crisp feeling. The hops linger in my throat, but they don't feel sticky, or like resin.
This is a delicious example of the style. The aroma was a bit of a let down, it is a bit over a month old, so maybe that plays a factor into it. That being said, the flavor is there.

Had on tap at the Bass Lake Draft House in Holly Springs, NC.
This was a tasty hazy IPA. Not a great amount of head, but the hazy appearance and color were good for the style. Dank, citrus fruit aromas were the outstanding aspect of this beer, with the taste almost as good. Worth trying if you get the chance.
