Looks like drag squeezed orange juice in a glass. Opaque yellow orange with a frothy whipped white top that laces well. Smells like a pineapple mango blend with some oranges thrown in at the end and just a touch of pine. Tastes so similar, but more citrus presence. A blended smoothie of flavors topped by a creamy and frothy feel, with a prickly carbonated finish. Overall, this is an outstanding new school IPA, and am very happy to have had the opportunity to try it. Cheers!

Appearance: pours a straw yellow to pale orange color. a finger or two of a white frothy head with decent retention and leaving behind a solid lacing. completely hazy and opaque.
Smell: orange, tropical fruit, floral hops, light apricot, light resin. low on the maltiness in the nose but some slightly sweet biscuit/cracker.
Taste: opens up with a mix of a light earthiness and fruitiness, from tangerine to orange. fruity flavors open up with some tropical fruit and light apricot. back end is floral and more earthy. sweet biscuit like malts round out the backend nicely.
Mouthfeel: super light and drinkable for a double. soft and moderate bitterness.
Overall: another solid double in the line up for the veil. great complex and complimentary hop character. a bit mosaic strong for my tastes and could use just a touch more bitterness. cool to see a top notch beer being done solely with lupulin powder

Other than the head, an ugly beer. A malty DIPA with a bitter finish. An above average beer but unremarkable in today's world of hop and fruit bombs. 3.5
