16 oz can acclimated to room temperature for 25 minutes and poured into an IPA glass.

Pours a hazy, somewhat dull (in saturation) orange, with 1 finger sudsy white head leaving minimal lacing.

Initial aroma is grapefruit, orange, pine, and clear alcohol.

Initial taste before swallowing is fuzzy, semi dry bitter, and semi dry citrus.

After swallowing I first get grapefruit, then some orange, then back to grapefruit, specifically zest, then an earthy hoppiness melds with the citrus, both lasting into the finish, where the hops sit on the top of the front of the tongue, and the citrus the top of the back of the tongue.

Had on tap and it had classic NEIPA looks and a decent aroma, but the flavor was basic and more standard IPA than NEIPA with more malt than dank hop influence. A decent beer overall that I'd have again.

Canned: 1/20/21
Opened, consumed and reviewed on: 4/21/21

A dark gold color, almost clear with a white foam cap, moderate foamy cover.

The nose has a sweet citrus and pine aroma with bold tropicals and grainy raw honey.

A sweet, sour and piney hop flavor hits the lips first, medium, malty slick body with leftover greens from the hops. A sour tang and sweet malty combo rides it out to the finish.

Definitely odd for a NEIPA, certainly has it's charms, but the strange effects keep it from being celebrated.

Got this as a pint on draft. Arrived an opaque orange with lacing for a head.

Smells of citrus and pine.

Tastes of pineapple, mango and citrus. Slight bitter finish.

Lush mouth feel. Medium body with light carbonation.

Very enjoyable NE IPA!

It is a New England IPA and it is a well done representative of the style.
