440ml can. Rich mango, bitter orange, papaya, pineapple. Heavy, velvety mouthfeel. An unctuous, overripe, dank NEDIPA. Not easy drinking, definitely a sipper.

Pours a hazy, opaque, orange coloration with a medium, fluffy, lasting head. Smells of light biscuity malt and bright, juicy hops, with prominent notes of white grape and pink grapefruit, as well as lighter mango and herbal dankness. Taste is an excellent balance of light biscuity malt and vibrant, dank and juicy hops, dominated by somewhat acidic white grape and zesty pink grapefruit, as well as lighter notes of mango papaya, orange and pine, with a pronounced, herbal and spicy dankness and just a hint of white pepper also coming through. Finishes with a medium bitterness, just a hint of hop bite and some white grape, grapefruit and spicy dankness lingering in the aftertaste. Soft, pillowy mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.
This is an amazing Imperial NEIPA that embodies Cloudwater's approach to the style and features a perfect melange of Nelson and Citra hops. It's incredibly dank and juicy, with zesty and acidic grapefruit and white grape notes, as well as lighter, sweet tropical accents and just a hint of pine and white pepper, featuring a good bitterness and soft mouthfeel.

Pours a hazy orange with soft, firm head.
Smell is dank, juicy and intense. Notes of mango, grapefruit, grapefruit peel, melon, gooseberries and a hint of grapes.
Taste is intense, juicy and very hoppy. Notes of mango, gooseberries, grapefruit, melon, grapes and a slight pepperiness. Soft, but sturdy bitterness. Clean and very balanced, despite the density of flavor.
Mouthfeel is medium, soft, pillowy and well carbonated.
Overall, a truly outstanding DIPA, powerful but drinkable.
