When life gives you lemons, we say screw the lemonade and make a New England-style IPA instead! This bright, medium-bodied brew is made for all the "hop-timists" out there who believe the world is a better place when you just add a little beer. We hopped things up with loads of Mosaic and Citra to create a luscious tropical aroma + a refreshing lemony zest on the back end.

Pours a pale gold. Thin foam. Lemon zest aroma. Bright lemony hop body. Little to no bitterness. Crisp clean finish. Very refreshing. A good summer brew.

12 ounce can, no dating that I noticed on it. My buddy Denis picked this up at the brewery a week or so ago so it was a recent purchase. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a hazy gold color with about an inch white head. Head retention and lacing are both good. The brew smells like lemon/lemon zest, tropical fruit and bready malt. I think the taste is similar to the aroma, but with the addition of some caramel malt too. Starts off citrusy tasting, and then has a sweetness in the finish. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's slick and a bit creamy with a moderate amount of carbonation. I thought it was an enjoyable enough brew, good for a warmer day and worth trying if you come across some!

Look - poured into a standard pint glass. Lemon yellow in color, hazy, small head with good lacing retention.
Smell - fresh orange juice and lemons. quite refreshing.
Taste - citrus and light hoppy bitterness, with a smooth malty finish. a bit of hoppy bite near the end.
Feel - medium bodied, average carbonation, and low on ABV at just 5.1%
Overall - giving this one the benefit of the doubt. An easy drinking, low ABV NEIPA with strong citrus flavor. more crushable than your average NEIPA.
