Nelson Sauvin and Citra create a bouquet of white grape, gooseberry, and the specific fresh spritz of citrus oil that’s visible in the air when peeling an orange. Flaked oats contribute a soft, smooth mouthfeel. Big, juicy flavors of mango nectar, tangerine, and melted rainbow sherbert are accompanied by a gently dry finish.

Canned 11/25/23 16 ouncer, direct from the source in Brooklyn, NY
Fine look to the full on NEIPA hazed n juiced pour, under a larger and lasting off white cap. Laeaves more then ample ringed sheeting and spotty lacing.
Ripe tropical fruit abound on the nose.
Densely flavorful and complex brew with loads of ripe fruits all over the palate, Mangos, melons, pineapple, lime, assorted stone fruits all coming to the party. Soft, smooth and freshly flavorful. Mighty fine creation...go get some and enjoy every sip of this nectar.

The can pour is pale yellow with a 1 cm white foam cap and a faint aroma of tangerines.
The flavor is orange-forward with grape and melon notes. The flavor is full and the hop bitterness is moderate.
The flavors persist in the finish.
This is a light-bodied brew with a faint aroma, but the flavors are quite present and good.
