Poured into a grip shaped goblet: color is straw gold, dense looking with hazy thick presence, head is bright white with fine and small bubbles, good lacing on the glass sides with a solid lingering top.
Smell is big citrus, pineapple and tropical fruit blend, lighter hop spice is noticeable.
Taste is hoppy, with more citrus, pineapple, and tropical fruit hop flavor; some good background spicy yeast but a bit too tropical or juicy for me.
Mouthfeel is what you would expect from the NEIPA style with moderate carbonation, strong bitterness, and drying over time.
Overall - a beer that seems to be hit or miss from sip to sip for me with the heavy tropical/pineapple flavors, but good bittering presence and moderate mouthfeel.

Poured from tap at home into a nonic pint glass.
L: Super hazy medium yellow/gold color with a big two finger white head. Nice glass lacing.
S: Super fruity and tropical with some bready malt. I get some herbal notes too.
T: Really fruity with pineapple, tropical fruites, stone fruit like peach, a little grapefrut and some slight herbal dank flavors. Sweetness is bready with a little candy like, but not overly so. Finish turns fruity again with some definite resinous qualities and a bit of chalkiness, slightly bitter too.
F: Medium mouthfeel, smooth until the finish but still dry. No alcohol.
O: A solid local choice for me in the category of NEIPA. It's a solid beer but not an award winner. Still, I really like it and will drink a lot more of it.

Light Golden color. Very full scent of tropical fruits. Mango and Pineapple are the prevalent on the tongue. Citrus shows up as it warms. Easy to drink and light on the tongue. Very drinkable beer I wish was available for me! Thanks @spelingchampeon for the trade.

16oz. can into Night Shift stemware.
Nose is citrus, pineapple, mango and other dank, tropical fruit. Pungent and very aromatic. Beer opens pungent. Notes of citrus, cantaloupe, mango and cane sugar. There's not much hop presence for balance until the end where I get a resiny, piney hop bite. Really enjoyable. Body is light with moderate carbonation. Prickly and foamy in the mouth and goes down soft, dry and sticky with a long, lingering aftertaste. A could use a little less bubbles but this is pretty good.
I didn't know what to expect from an offering from a brewery I'd never heard of before but this is pretty impressive. Really solid the whole way through.

Received a 16 ounce pour while at Miller's Ale House in Allentown Pennsylvania on January 31, 2018. Outstanding nose and taste. Will definitely be looking for this in the future! Loved it.

Canned 12/1/17
Light yellow, haze, full head.
A lot of lemon in the nose coupled with sugary cereal. Not in an in your face aroma
The first taste has the lemon flavor but not overly acidic or tart. Almost Non-existent bitterness but its very slight. Some hard candy sweetness.
Light, soft, ample carbonation.
Semi local to me brewer taking a shot at the NEIPA and it is done well. The taste is a bit one dimensional although low bitterness, appearance and feel fit the style.

Grabbed a 4-pack at the brewery while rolling through Emmaus. Nice hazy yellow. Lovely peach and lemon zest aroma. The flavor is a spicer citrus with a dry, dry finish. Damn, I want another.
