Way too sweet and driven by yeast character. Not similar to true NE style ipas. Still decent but other Mikerphone hoppy beers surpass this. Needs more bitterness

Very cloudy straw appearance with slight white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is a pleasant citrus. Taste is a slightly bitter prominent citrus with a great feel.

Pours straight orange juice with a fluffy, white head. Good lacing.
Juicy citrus hop smell with sweeter fruit.
Taste of mango, melon, juicy citrus hop. Has a little more bitterness than most NEIPA in a good way. Pepper spice with just a little dank garlic and onion.
Very soft on the palate. Another great Mikerphone!

Hazy orange juice body with a white head that settles into a cap with lacing. Smell has a ton of sweet pineapple, peach and mango, with orange, grapefruit, and melon supporting. Taste is super fruity/hazy, with the fruit being more equal compared to smell, plus the hops have a touch of bitterness on the end. Body is creamy, smooth, pillowy, soft, and lush.

A malt-forward, Mosaic NEIPA that hits more stonefruit and blueberry notes than citrus. Very nice, pillowy-soft mouthfeel that accentuates the peach and light grassiness.

One of my favorite Mikerphone IPAs along with Thursty and fresh Pale Pauper. The color is darker than other NEIPAs. It’s hazy though as you’d expect. Don’t miss this own.

Pours a light orange-yellow with a beautiful hazy appearance.

Juicy tropical and citrus fruit notes, mango, pineapple, orange, and some peach notes.

Juicy tropical and citrus fruit flavors, definitely loaded with Mosaic.

Medium-bodied, low-medium carbonation, soft, juicy, a slight bite on the finish.

Overall, at 8.5% this brew is dangerous delicious!
