Pours a gold with a foamy white head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of tropical fruit and grapefuit. Taste is a tangy, slightly grapefuit. Smooth and creamy. Not overly hoppy.

Canned 2/22/23 (1.5 months ago)

Appearance: Pours a mostly hazy (10% clarity) medium golden to light orange color with a massive white head. SRM of 7. (4.25)

Aroma: Strong aromas of orange, tangerine, tropical cantaloupe melon.

Flavor: Moderate flavors of orange and lemon citrus, pineapple, tropical melon and papaya. Lightly floral. clean on the finish. (4.00)

Feel: Medium-bodied, strong carbonation. Finishes clean and leans dry. (4.25)

Compared to Junkyard Chem Dawg Trails 4/2023: Pours similar, stronger head. Stronger aromas. More orange and lemon citrus, papaya, and floral notes. Less sweet pineapple, melon, and sweet orange. Lighter and cleaner.

Overall: A nicely done and well-balanced NEIPA here. Not familiar with any of the hops here. Experimental 17701 and Cryo Pop are not ones I've come across. Nice flavors though. Orange, lemon, pineapple, some tropical fruit and melon. Lightly floral notes. Well-balanced and nice flavors. (Rating: 4.09+)
