3.31/5  rDev -14.5%
look: 2.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3 | feel: 4 | overall: 3
Pours a hazy orange with huge chunks of fruit in it. The pieces settle at the bottom and look like mud. Not very pretty.

Smell is fruity and almost a little bit tart with notes of apricots, oranges and peaches.

Taste is fruity and damned boozy. Slighty tart from the fruit, but this lacks coherence, and is way too boozy.

Mouthfeel is medium, until you get to the fruit chunks, well carbonated.

Overall, I think my can of this was a bit off. Judging by the other reviews there seems to be huge variation between cans. Mine looked like a lava lamp, as did CanConPhillys, but not Larryi86's. Those three can were from the same four-pack... I have one more, may update if it's different.

Appearance - Pours bright orange with huge white chunks looks like big pieces of coconut. Thin white head that quickly settles to a thin cola like ring. No lacing but lots of particulate stuck to the sides.

Aroma - Some orange and light tangerine the alcohol is coming out pretty well in the nose, actually the alcohol in the nose is almost drowning out the fruit as it warms a little.

Taste - Lots of alcohol in the taste , muted orange again the alcohol just crushes any other flavors for me. Something really tastes off I get a really off flavor I cannot put my finger on. Really bitter and almost astringent.

Feel - Medium bodied chalky dry finish.

Overall - Have to say not a fan of this one, all alcohol on the nose something off on the taste.

L - this beer is full of cruddy particles! 1/2 finger offwhite head atop a murky yellow body with tons lf huge floaties.

S - strong herb, citrus, cheese.

T - quite dank. Some grapefruit, cheese, anise. Low bitterness. Low sweetness. Low booziness.

F - medium body and carb.

O - bizarre. Looks gross, super dank taste, but not at all boozy at 11%. I’m not sure what to make of it. Love/hate on this one.

Thank you JamFuel for this
16 oz can, dated 11/20/18, poured into a teku

A- A hazy golden orange with a small white head.

S- Citrus, some tropical fruits, dank, apricots, some sweetness.

T- Citrus, apricots, some melons, tropical fruits, dank, green, touch of sweetness.

M- Smooth, creamy, full body.

O- One of the better NEIPA in the 10+% range. Easy to drink, I feel like the fact that this is green is helping the beer.
