Poured into a 16 oz Nordic pint glass not sure when it was canned. Pours a hazy yellow orange with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves a thick foamy ring of lace, with excellent retention. 4.5
Smell papaya, earthy herbal hops, pineapple, tangerine, and mild grapefruit rind. 4.5
Taste follows papaya, earthy, pineapple, tangerine, and some very little grapefruit bitterness. 4.5
Mouthfeel is a solid medium, gentle soft carbonation, not dry but a tad sticky from the massive dry hopping, and drinks more like 6.5 or 7. 5
Overall at 5.3% this is one of the best NEAPAs I have ever had. Just incredible what they have done with this one. 4.5

Pours a pale gold color, very cloudy, with a one finger off-white dense head that leaves nice lacing.
Aroma is a little light but still intense with pineapple and orange notes followed by something a little musty. Not sure what that's about.
The taste is very similar with pineapple and orange and grapefruit (it is not really sweet). That smoky-musty flavor is hard to miss and it is strongest in the finish, lingering after.
Feel is very soft and moderately bitter with a fairly pronounced carbonation behind it.
Can't say that seeming off-flavor is appealing to me. Kinda ruins it IMO but it does not detract from what is a solid base of a beer. The heavy seltzer is a nice touch as well.
