L - Glowing orange density, smaller head, less lacing than I would have expected.
S - Typical giant Nelson hop smell notes, and this one is aaaallllll Nelson. You smell it, too - think of jacked up Sauvignon Blanc grapes with the best Kush weed smells, with some depth of guava and tropical dry melons in there too. A little berry effect as well.
T - Explodes and full palate impact here. More of the tropics, with enough dryness it doesn't go sweet-imperial, but stays a true double-qua-triple IPA. Again, more white grapes-dankness-weed-is-melon-berries on the tongue. This is impressive...and just damn delicious.
F - Great mouthfeel, a good balance between NEIPA creamy and rich, and enough dryness, I don't get a lactose/sweet impression either. Good acidity, more on the citric juice side. Lovely.
O - Another single hop feature by New Image that doesn't fail to impress. Jeebus.
