Gold in color with a very hazy complexion. There’s a quarter inch eggshell white on top. Moderate, soapy lacing. The aroma is of citrus. I’m tasting intense mandarin orange. The mouth is very smooth and approachable.

Poured a translucent yellow orange and was topped with an off white 2 finger head, but it was the aroma that caught my attention-
Smelled of mangoes and citrus, but predominately mangoes. For my damaged sense of smell, that's something.
The taste kind of followed, definitely meant to be a version of an NEIPA but not nearly as "joosie" with citrus and pineapple - this was far more dense stone fruit forward, peaches and the like. Quite tasty actually, the hop bitterness seals off the swallow so it keeps the flavors from getting slushie like.
The feel, well, excellent. not full of bits and chewy stuff found in so many "Haze bombs" - this is smooth and very, very easy to drink.
OA, nice NEIPA by a brewery that's doing some amazing work.

Look is great, its slightly hazy, golden, and orange. Smell punches you in the face with orange when you crack the can open. The aroma is not chemically at all. Very Natural. Taste is great, not much floral notes, its mostly orange and citrus. The feel is very nice, the carbonation is small and quick.

This is the third Transient beer I have had and I am very impressed. I highly recommend this beer.

This beer pours a murky, hazy orange-ish color. The head in my glass from the can is a 1 finger white head. Retention is I good. I see some lacing on the glass.
The nose is tropical. Tons of mango on it.
Taste - This beer has a mango flavor, and it also has a creamy flavor to it, to me. I don't see lactose on here, so I'm assuming it's from the hops.
Like I said on the flavor, there''s a creamy feel to this beer. It has a full body, and soft feeling.
I may be a bit worn out from the style, but this is damn good,

Smell is all juicy and tart citrus. Taste follows with the tart fruit on the forefront and that dank hop/resin flavor on the backend. These are terribly drinkable.

Kind of disappointed with this one. It has a nice look, but not the turbidness of a self-identified New England ipa. Nose is a little muddled - if get fruit salad rather than notes of nuanced hops. Taste suffers from a lack of nuance or balancing hop bitterness or drying yeast. Just kind of meh to me. Maybe even a touch of butter in there?

Loved the other beer I grabbed from transient, maybe this one was an older can.
