Juicy bs smooth, this hazy NE style IPA drips with delicious citrus flavor and aroma. Thoroughly hopped at 6 lbs per barrel, yet approachable at 35 IBU, a spherical experience to lay back and sip through.

Dark copper to dark gold with a hazy complexion. There’s a fingernail of off white on top. Small spots of soapy lacing are present. There’s an aroma of citrus and melon. I’m tasting grapefruit and melon. The mouth is lightly sticky and resinous.

On tap at BCO outdoor in Bryson City, NC- nice amber hazy look with creme head... aromas are nice but I didn't get a good whiff from patio plastic cup. It's hoppy fresh from a can , though- I've had it there and at home. Nice caramel and fruit pulp base, with oft legant hopness and light subtle bitterness factor. A delicious brew from my favorite brewery.
I would recommend this to any NE /hazy IPA lover. It's frikkin awesome.

I am trying a can of this beer at my bestie's house in Charlotte, NC. It poured a hazy golden with white head that is not leaving much lace. The scent had dank mango and guava notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with mango and guava presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Picked up a single from the Highland Lakes Road Ingles cooler on 6-9-22 for $2.00. Canned 4-4-22; consumed 9-18-22. Cold stored since purchase.
Beer poured a hazy gold with a nice sustained white head.
Nose is fresh citrus forward.
Taste is nicely balanced with a lighter malt base that displays a flavor profile of orange, grapefruit, and mango. Finishes with a light touch of rind bitterness; 5/10 on my scale.
Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and refreshing.
Overall a nice easy drinking NEIPA of good quality from the Boojum team!

Drinking this at home.
Poured from a can into a pint glass.
Looks hazy orange yellow with a nice white foamy head that lasted.
Smells lightly bready, citrusy, orange and grapefruit.
Taste follows the nose nicely with a consistent orange citrus flavor.
Mouth feel is medium for the style.
Overall a very nice example of a NEIPA that I would definitely order again.
Cheers!

This is a nice one...very crushable. From a 12 oz single can picked up while in Asheville into La Fin du Monde tulip, aggessive pour produces a dense chalky golden pineapple yellow with a good 1 finger head, decent retention, and good lacing. Nose brings solid citrus (orange, grapefruit) fruitiness that's kind of garden green (but I don't mean dank, though there might be just a little of that, here) as opposed to overripe...a little spice in there, too. Doesn't have much in the way of layers, but good notes, so I'm not complaining. A little watery and nondescript on the front, but soon there's some citric hoppiness zipping around on top of some fairly neutral biscuity malt, and some good juiciness to the mouthful. Not very sweet (for which I'm grateful) and not much in the way of bitterness, though there it tends toward the acidic. Low to middling carb and moderately soft mouthful. I enjoyed it.

Outrageously good hazy IPA, an absolute peach of the style. Very cloudy unfiltered orange-gold appearance, extremely well-balanced hops, citrus, not bitter at 35 IBUs.

12 oz. can poured into ipa glass
Bright yellow-gold, hazy body, very fine white full head is soon reduced to a creamy smooth layer, minimal if any lacing.
Smells amazingly fresh and hoppy as hell
Tastes full and hops , tart dry and very well done in its balance; not too sweet like a lot of hazy juice bombs. Clean and refreshing! A crushable ipa for sure. I get lime/lemon and tart pineapple maybe. I love how its indescribable flavor follows and complements the aroma profile. Very much greenery in here.
Very very nice, and highly recommended to hazy ipa enthusiasts.
