My old neighbor and good friend from Oswego gave me a can of this. It poured a hazy orangish with white head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had ripe citrus notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with tropical citrus presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body with good carbonation. Overall its a good beer.

16oz can poured into a tulip

A- pours a hazy dark orange color with a one-finger foamy white head that has great retention

S- lemon, melon and grapefruit hop notes, a bit resinous, underlying bready malt

T- big lemon notes up front, reminiscent of a lemoncello, followed by zesty grapefruit, ripe green melon and pithy tangerine. The finish gives more lemon, and grapefruit with a melon linger

M- meduim body with moderate carbonation leads to a foamy mouthfeel that turns into a creamy finish

Cart Horse from Old Nation. Purchased 11/13/20 for $4 (Including tax) for 16 oz can ($ 0.25/oz) from Franklin Beer, Franklin, PA. Reviewed 12/16/20.
On bottom of can “PKG ON 10/08/20”. In reefer at store at store and stored at home at 42 degrees. Served at 53.2 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter. Final temperature 56.8 degrees.
Appearance – 4.
First pour – Pale gold (SRM 4), clear.
Body – Deep gold (SRM 6), murky and opaque. When held to direct light, it lightens up a bit to a saffron yellow but is still opaque.
Head – Large (Maximum 4.2 cm, aggressive center pour), off white, medium density, average retention, diminishing to a ten to thirteen mm jagged crown with a thin, rocky cap. Many chunks or lacing remain as the head collapses. Second pour produces a tight 0.8 cm head.
Lacing – Very good. Multiple irregular bands of barely distinguishable extremely tiny bubbles to small bubbles, with the bands connected by columns of varying length and width.
Aroma –3.5 – Weak melony hops, a touch of malt, no yeast. Lasts but weakens still more.
Flavor – 4 – Begins slightly bitter with a little honey dew, a bit of raw malt appears in the aftertaste, no yeast. Ends the same with a marked bitterness hanging on my hard palate. No alcohol (7 % ABV, as marked on container) taste or aroma. No gastric warming occurs. No dimethylsulfide or diacetyl.
Palate – 4 – Medium, slightly creamy, soft carbonation.
Final impression and summation: 4. A decent yet unremarkable NEIPA. The oats and wheat give it a heavier body than the average NEIPA.
