This pours a delightful hazy orange gold. Big juicy bouquet with a sharp, bitter, citrusy kick. So much juice! I've yet to be disappointed by Alvarado.

Well this might be the "haziest" NE ipa I've ever had. Straight up, this just looked like turkey gravy. Smooth sailing after that though. Great juicy aroma, melon, orange, tangerine, grass.
Taste, not bitter, not quite gritty, but lacking the same liquid viscosity of wet stuff. Plenty of tropical notes throughout the foray. Bitterness is very subdued on this one. Lacks a malt contingency that can be spoke of, not toasted or roasted. Just, pale. . .
Alcohol is present, but not obnoxious. Overall its a good beer that looks like shit, even if intended.

Pours hazy golden yellow with a finger of fluffy slightly off white head. Aroma is fully of sweet juicy orange, peach, and pineapple. It smells like a fruit salad if overripe fruit. The palate brings big orange juice notes with a vegetal and herbaceous bitterness on the mid palate. This drinks like an 8.5 percent dipa...it won't sneak up on you.

This beer pours like a glass of orange juice. Orange gold with a smell reminiscent of POG juice with citrus and tropical flavors combining in the juiciest of ways. The taste follows up with cantaloupe melon, papaya, mango, pineapple, orange, and guava. This is the greatest NEIPA I've had from California. Fantastic. Only complaint is a mild alcoholic solvent-like flavor on the back end of the sip. Quite literally this is a more delicious screwdriver with POG juice. Unbelievable.
