Orange juice through and thru, Citra pronounced mandarin and navel, soft and creamy, good bitterness, frothy head and pale golden orange, this is exemplary Of the juicy style, one that many have tried and couldnt quite strike a true balance that offers the experience of drinking orange juice. If that’s your thing, give it a whirl

Received a can courtesy of @muchloveforhops3 2-16-24, thanks Doug! Canned 12.13.23; consumed 3-16-24. Cold stored since acquisition.

Beer poured aa hazy golden orange with a beautiful billowy white head that has some hang time.

Nose is very nice, full of tropical fruits and citrus.

Taste is a moderate pale malt base that lets the citra hops do its thing which is to give notes of orange and mango. Finishes with a slight trace or rind for balancing bitterness which is 5/10 on my scale.

Mouthfeel is light bodied with each sip being very soft and smooth.

Overall a super easy drinking hazy, definitely could enjoy 1 or 2 more in a session!

13 oz draft pour at Lures Bar & Grille. Appearance is a hazy and very pale creamy yellow with a smallish head. Aroma and flavor feature a TON of papaya along with mango and some citrus. Wheaty malt base. It's hard to believe this doesn't have actual fruit in it - impressive.

Ripe pours a hazy, golden yellow color with a small, long-lasting, massively lacing head. The aroma has lots of dried mango notes. The flavor is sweeter, dried mango. Good feel. Overall, it is a fantastic hazy with many sweet, dry mango notes.

Can dated 8/24/23 into pint glass. Pours a murky light gold color with a persistent off-white head. Great lacing. Initial impression is juicy pineapple, citrus, mango, grapefruit, and a light touch of caramel. Mouthfeel is juicy, soft and pillow-y. Finish fades to a slightly sweet citrus. An excellent NEIPA. Wish I'd bought more than a single!

Cloudy pale golden yellow with finger of tight foamy white head.
Nose of pineapple - citrus - grapefruit - a bit sweaty and dank. A touch of peach and just hints of piney resin.
Bright and sweet tropical fruit on the palate- mango, pineapple, citrus with a crisp grapefruit peel bitterness at the back. Hint of lemon.
Light medium mouthfeel with active carbonation and a crisp, dry finish.

On tap at the brewery in Portland. Pours a crazy murky yellow with zero head. Looks great. The nose is wonderful - fruit, jam, slight pine. The taste is fantastic. Super smooth and drinkable. Minimal bitterness. Fruity and juicy. Lovely IPA.

16oz can dated 4/10/23.

Pours cloudy yellow with an inch of white fluff. Moderate retention and lacing. Peach and orange in the nose. Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Ripe orange, peach, mango on the palate with minimal malt or bitterness. Finishes juicy and fairly dry. Tastes like Julius.

Average neipa for me, this one had a bit too much punch for my liking. To me this tastes like a DIPA or Imperial but without the accompanying ABV.
