Wow. This is a really amazing double (and then some) hazy American IPA. Hoof Hearted has produced many of the best of this style. It's not a fluke. They are good.
This one pours an exquisite yellow haze with fine fizz. The aroma is an amalgam of what's best in hazy IPAs without the stank. Very appetizing. Huge but balanced hops and malts envelope your palate. It is pretty thick feeling.
Highly recommended. I will buy Hoof Hearted IPAs any time I see them offered (assuming freshness). I now have blind faith in these brewers. I think I have one more new one in my fridge. And one more of these beauties.

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local beer store located just around the corner. It poured a hazy golden with very thin white ring head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had dank citrus peel notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with stone apricot and melon presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

can to snifter.
LOOK: light yellow color, 60% hazy. light look. medium white head that fades quick but shows very good retention.
AROMA: mango, strawberry, vanilla, coconut. very sweet and tropical. Smells like vacation.
TASTE; some drop-off here, but still tasty. wood, grass jump to the forefront, with some of the strawberry and coconut rounding it out. Almost chemical like flavor taints the finish.
FEEL: some sharpness, light body, ok carbonation.
Not tasty enough or bold enough for a triple.

Very hazy orange color with a 1/2 inch white head-nice lacing for a 10% beer.
Strong smell of tropical fruit, faint citrus and a touch of dank.
Taste mimics the nose. Lots of flavor. Some sweetness but it works
and doesn’t become cloying. Finishes with a slight bitterness.
Medium-thick mouthfeel. Soft and creamy.
A really well made huge NEIPA. I usually don’t like them this big because they are too sweet but this is really good. Recommended.
