Can. Pours hazy and opaque. Aroma is very much a Finback brew. Sorta nondescript but the more you smell it the more you pull pleasant hoppy aromatics. This is like a bit of an orange sherbet aroma. Flavor is again, all Finback; on brand. Fruity, New Englandy. I think the orange sherbet descriptor works here as well. Pretty good but I have had it before, from this brewery, in a different color can.

Served on tap into a 10 oz (296 ml) snifter at the Ginger Man in NYC.
A: Pours an opaque, yellow-orange color (think orange juice) with a one finger, foamy, lemon chiffon colored head, solid retention, and excellent, complex lacing.
S: Citrus aroma at first, pineapple, white grapefruit, pine, and very grainy.
T: More semisweet than semidry. Flavors follow the nose, with an emphasis on the grains. Strong, piney bitterness.
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Creamy.
O: A solidly enjoyable and drinkable NEIPA.

There’s a signature Finback look, aroma, taste, and feel to this beer.
Pineapple color with a 3F head, in a Spielgelau IPA glass.
Aroma is weak at first, a little weaker than their other IPAs. OJ, creamsicle.
Great MF. Tangy, good carbonation.
Citrus, tropical fruit, very hoppy finish.
Excellent beer.
