Poured from 16-ounce can into a Craft Beer Club sampling glass. Striking luminescent pale yellow color, opaque rather than hazy, with a short white head that settled to a thin ring. While the brewer calls this a hazy DIPA, it certainly has all the earmarks of the NEIPA style. Juicy grapefruit, pineapple, orange, and mango, very low bitterness, medium bodied, not too sweet, and a pleasantly dry finish. Oh, and it's also delicious. Well done, and highly recommended!
