L: Creamsicle - very hazy. Head flattens out quickly, no lacing.
S: Bright fruit aroma. Tropical.
T: Excellent crossover of stone and tropical fruits.
F: Ultra smooth, carbonation is light. Medium-full MF.
O: My very 1st Finback brew. Very well done. Nothing new, but nothing done wrong. If I had to nitpick.. I'd say its a shame I had to wait this long to try it. Could easily be my favorite, if it was readily available .

Had on tap. Pours super hazy, caution light yellow with 1/4 inch head. This is what a NEIPA should look like. Taste is big peach and nectarine. Moderate body and carbonation, slightly bitter. Love all the flavor they squeezed into this low abv beer. Beer got better as it warmed. I would get this again.

On tap at Blue Monk in Buffalo, NY.
This one pours hazy and turbid, like peach orange juice, with a half inch head and a good amount of lacing.
Smells super juicy and tropical, tons of orange, passion fruit and grapefruit, with nary a hint of malt.
This is an unabashed NE-style juice bomb, super hoppy but not very bitter at all. The aforementioned fruits are all there, with orange and mango especially being the strongest flavors.
This is medium bodied, with a very juicy mouthfeel.
A really nice beer from Finback- might be the best thing I've had from them yet.
