LOOK: Pulpy yellow. small creamy off white head; good retention.
AROMA: grapefruit, sour cherry/berry, touch of wild yeast/wang.
TASTE: lots of lemon and grapefruit. lots of sweet citrus, pineapple, hawaiian punch.
FEEL: sticky pulpy, like fruit juice.
disappointed. kind of all over the place. very overly juicy and sweet.

Pours a med-larger foamy creamy head with med retention, fair soapy lacing, hazy cloudy opaque like pale tan-yellow color
Nose brings grainy malt, almost toasted grain character, more straw, flaked suspended proteins, overboard on the minerals, fair hops in the background, with citrus, tropical fruit, stone fruit like apricot, more fruit as it warms like kumquat, peach, mango
Taste brings some alcohol flavor up front, a rummy like alcohol character, with plenty more fruit, apricot and kumquat again, a bit peachy, then more tropical like mango and a lot of pineapple coming through, more creamy base malts, cereal grain, suspended flaked proteins, a bit more chalky minerals, alcohol hints that it will become fusel but doesn't, lingering fruits and sticky finish
Mouth is med bod, very soft fluffy like, juicy, light warming alcohol, med creamy foamy carb
Overall eh, the hop fruits are nice, but overall impression of this is just another generic pumped out NEIPA where they went overboard on the chalky minerals and flaked wheat, this is a good example of why I burnt out on these

A: Pours a hazy yellow color with 2 fingers of head that fades down to a thin cap
S: Citrus, tropical fruit, and pine up front along with some lighter herbal and floral notes
T: Follows the nose. Starts off with the tropical fruit and citrus and then picks up some lighter pine, floral, and herbal notes. Light-moderate bitterness. Finishes with lingering tropical fruit
M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation
O: A solid DIPA that is decently easy to drink. Kind of an odd mix of hops, but it sort of works

From a 16oz can, dated 07/03/20. Served in a cervoise.
Pours an opaque, milky-chalky mango-gold with a finger-plus of soft, lathery suds. Retention is good for a couple of minutes, settling back to a wispy cap and a thin, slippery curtain of lacing.
Smells of fresh, yeasty white bread and a faint whiff of an overripe fruit of some sort.
Tastes of... banana. That was unexpected. Boozy banana. Sticky, tacky, sweet. Some pineapple and mango, and maybe a little pine, but mostly overripe banana.
Feel is thick and doughy, medium-hefty bodied and adequately carbonated. Some boozy warmth. My brain keeps trying to trick me into thinking I’m slurping mashed banana.
Tastes boozier than 8.8% and, overall, not a flavour profile that works well for me.
