Poured into a wide mouth, grip shaped goblet: color is straw gold, dense/murky hazy, head is brighter white and presents 1/4 inch thick, then dissipates to nothing, some spotty lacing.
Smell is really subdued - mostly citric pith, some mixed tropical notes, maybe some booziness.
Taste is similar - muddled but mostly pithy citrus, some tropical notes, light barley malt, some oat/wheat character, light booziness, but thick/sweet.
Mouthfeel is low carbonation, moderate sweetness, moderate pithy bitterness.
Overall a thick, moderately sweet DIPA - looks like an NEIPA so reviewed as such, that said its even on the thicker/sweeter side of a NEIPA.

Served in a pint glass
Appearance: unfiltered and hazy. Almost non existent head but some lacing
Smell: Dominant Grapefruit and citrus
Taste: Same. Borders on sour not supper bitter or overpowering hop presence
Mouthfeel: Smooth creamy with citrus aftertaste as well
Drinkabillity : Very drinkable, not boozy
Enjoyed this beer, which came in a mixed 6 as a gift. I'll look for this one again.

Fingers worth of thick lush off white froth... Excellent retention... Color is an uber hazy lemony yellow... Nose is more subdued then expect but highlighted with lemon and orange zest... Palate is spot on with the nose... Crisp elegant medium mouthfeel... Drinks like a session beer and missing a lot of the depth and heft that I expected... Really surprised this weighs in at 8.4% ABV...

A thanks to the incredible woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a golden/orange color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of citrus, little else. Taste is oranges, a touch of tropical fruits and peaches, moderate bitterness. Feels medium /full bodied in the mouth and overall is a solid beer.

Appearance: Pours a hazy honey color with a thin head; just a few spots of lacing
Smell: Vague tropical fruit and orange creamsicle tones
Taste: Honeydew melon forward with an orange creamsicle sweetness developing; low bitterness with just a hint of pith, in the middle, and a very sweet finish
Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation
Overall: Just too sweet for my palate
