This one is dedicated to the beautifully inspiring landscape that we call home. We are proud to call the Hudson Valley our home, and as such, we decided it was time to pay homage to the rolling hills that raised us. This IPA was brewed with malted and flaked oats, and got dry hopped with Citra Cryo, Mosaic, and German Amarillo, making for delicate notes of ripe stonefruit and cantaloupe, finishing with a slight sweetness reminiscent of Runts fruit candy.

Tall can with 10/10/21 dating.
The pour here is a pleasing shade of NEIPA hazy, withstands a long lasting fluffy cap and leaves a better then respectable amount of thicker lacing.
Berries and light tropical fruit notes on the sniff.
Worthy brew with typical Sloop panache and intrigue, plus a bit more lime and ginger then typically in their beers.

Can says it's brewed with Flaked Oats, Malted Oats, Citra Cryo, Mosaic & German Amarillo Hops.
A: Poured into a Tree House tulip. Body is on the paler side of golden, with some white bubbles on top. Modestly hazy. Some lacing.
S: Pleasant nose, of modest peaches, apricot and tropical fruit (melon and even coconut).
T: First impression: this is really good. Manages to "taste like beer" (read: old-fashioned lagers) and a NEIPA at the same time - good hoppy flavors of tropical fruit (melon, limes, mango), ripe peaches, and a good bitterness (I think that's from the German Amarillo hops). Bitterness is somewhat short-lived, as the sweetness takes over on the palate and lingers into the aftertaste.
M: Not as juicy in feel as many NEIPAs (or the Sloop "Bomb" series of NEIPAs), but it's definitely more of a juicy IPA than a west coast-style. Lighter side of medium in feel.
O: Very good. My favorite new Sloop NEIPA in a while, I think.
