Poured from an undated 12oz can.
On the pour an enormous 4 finger just off white head that slowly becomes rocky. I got it well aboclve the rime. Body is very hazy and a darker yellow color. Some lacing.
Aroma is big and fruity with a bit of pine hiding in the background. The hops definitely take the forefront on this and are very juicy.
Taste follows the aroma with the big fruity hops, but there's almost a spicy vanilla that works its way through before that piney bitterness sets in for the finish. Definitely a sweeter ipa but not quite a full NEIPA.
Feel is full despite the lower abv. Perhaps some oats going on in here. Medium Ling finish but not overwhelming. A drinkable sipper.
Overall the hops feel pretty experimental despite being a smash beer, so hey it's pretty good. And wait there shouldn't be oats if this is a smash... I'll boost the feel rating just for that!
