I asked for a 4-pack of Home to take with me. I wasn't paying attention and they gave me this instead. Sad face.
Pours a little hazy, but not like their regular NEIPAs. Nose is surprisingly earthy with some more traditional citrus and pine, and a little subdued compared to the better Ocelot or Aslin offerings. Taste falls along the same lines plus a little dank. Not the juiciest, but pretty solid overall.

Pours a bright orangey golden. Some slightly sour tropical fruit on the nose, pineapple and mangoes. It's soft with a very beautiful bubbly gummy mouthfeel. There's some melon and tangerine. Maybe a touch of citrus pith, but it is not at all overwhelming. A very nice well rounded beer with an excellent mouthfeel.

On tap at Rustico Restaurant, where $2 from every pint of this purpose-made beer is donated to a children's charity. Slightly hazy, yellow straw, typical Ocelot all the way. Smell is tropical and very fresh. Taste was similar, with the Galaxy hop riding nicely on the low-malt base. Excellent beer. I got two pints and will be back for more.
