Had this on 2020-02-22 near Pittsburgh, PA from a 16oz can

A - Hazy straw-gold with a 1.25-finger white head and good lace

S - Significant hop bud goodness. Leafy, vegetal, somewhat dank, orange. lemon grass.

T - Big, gooey hop forward slam echoing the aroma. Orange and other tropical fruits, along with some biscuit comes lumbering along after the initial burst from the triple dry hoping. There pine and aspirin bitterness. I like the flavor.

M - Medium body and carbonation. Although it is called a NEIPA, it doesn't have a soft feel, which suits me.

O - The slam from the triple dry hoping pushes this Imperial NEIPA far enough into the West Coast territory that it appeals to me. I've never had a triple dry hopped Imperial NEIPA before so I don't know how to rate it to style :>} but give me a beer with some spicy, piney bitterness, citrus and with some crispness and chances are I'll like it. That's the case with this one.
