16oz undated can.
Pours hazy gold with a white head. Moderate retention and lacing. Light notes of grape, candied pear, melon, and peach in the nose. Medium bodied with a chewy mouthfeel. Sweet malt with peppery, spicy hops on the palate. Finishes fairly malty and sweet with subdued hops.
Severly dissapointing for a $ 5.00 can.

Canned date smudged
Pours a decent fizzy bubbly 1 finger head restains well, good lacing, quite hazy golden honey orange color
Nose mild citrus, tangerine, candied orange, hint mango, melon cantaloupe notes, fruit punch papaya, guavaberry, mild creamy malt and touch buttery maybe from the creamy wheat or maybe diacetyl
Taste creamy malt, wheat doughy creamy, then big hops, quite bitter, little spicy briny, orange rind, tangerine, spicy melon rind and mango skin, juicy papaya and cantaloupe, otherwise very spicy and bitter, dry finish, super spicy briny finish and astringent
Mouth is med bod, rich creamy, little alcohol and mild astringent
Overall it's not too bad but definite flaws, first is the huge spicy bitterness and lack of soft juicy feel for an NEIPA, then the astringent slight alcohol finish is bleh, and mild creamy butter nose that may be there in the taste but way overpowered but the ridiculous hops, sorry this was not a very good beer
