Hold onto the feeling of days at the lake and nights chasing the sunset with this hazy brew made for easy escapes. Fence Hop is juicy and golden, with smooth bitterness, aromas of tropical fruit and citrus zest, and subtle notes of coconut and pine. Hop the fence, chase the sun, and savor the moment.

1 PINT can
Served in a stemless wine glass
This beer pours orange and hazy. suspended chunks are throughout. It is topped with a couple inches of tan head that leaves decent lacing.
Some tropical and citrus notes
Some sweetness and tropical flavors upfront. Citrus in the finish with grapefruit standing out.
Full bodied with a creamy mouthfeel
Another solid offering from Old Nation

Pours hazy yellow -orange color. The pils wheat backbone of the bear is evident in the thinness despite the added oat for the haze and small amount of particulate in each can.
Thin head that sticks around long enough for a nice hoppy aroma for the first two sips.
Smell is subtle, orange candy.
This beer tastes exactly as it should given the description- great malty backbone with a rather thinner profile and mouthfeel for the haziness and abv. Great hoppy flavor with notes of stone fruit, papaya and finishes with pine.
Overall this is an awesome and unique imperial hazy IPA

Pretty close to a Boss Tweed!
Poured into a Tree House glass a very nice cloudy yellow/orange color, very nice carbonation, with a very nice thick/creamy two-finger white head, which leaves some very nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, papaya, apricot, mango, blueberry, nectarine, cataloupe), with some very nice diesel like. The taste is very nice, hoppy, malty, with a very nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, papaya, apricot, mango, blueberry, nectarine, cataloupe), very nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV is hidden very nicely, with some nice sweetness, with a pretty nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, a very nice/tasty brew. Orange Julius! Addictive! Milk Shake!

Aroma is fruit, sweet citrus and very funky hops. The flavor is fruit/mild tart candy, malts, tropical fruit/hint of papaya and a spicy/slightly funky/sweet citrus hop finish.

Pours a very hazy golden straw color color with a foamy white head that lingers a bit and provides moderate lacing. Gorgeous NEDIPA.
The nose is all about the juicy citrus notes, with load of mango, passion fruit, papaya, and a smidge of coconut, and that’s exactly where the taste lands, with a bit of sweet oats on the finish. Delicious stuff.
The mouthfeel is full and soft, on point for the style. This is exceptionally well done, IMHO.

Poured from a pint can.
Opaque Orange with whisps of foam and light lacing.
Orange mango aroma with some dank weed and pine notes.
Mango comes through in the taste with lingering dankness.
Thick and tingly mouthfeel with a very slight hint of alcohol burn.
This is a really good NeIPA. It forwards the argument that NeIPAs shouldn't be classified with IPAs.
