L - pours a hazy viscous creamy brownish orange. Great color. The way the yeasty orange changes color throughout the glass is mesmerizing. Almost milky on the top layer. Beautiful! Like Adelaide, I'm sure.
S - juicy orange rind and pineapple. Ultra fresh and juicy. Slightest hint of coriander. Really highlights the "New England" style. Papaya and crackers.
T - candied pineapple and citrus. Almost reminds me of Trillium. Rich and flavorful. Tangy and maybe a little salty. That might be the hop bitterness! Malts make their way in toward the finish, combining with the sticky hop oils for a dank dry sweetness.
F - extremely low carb, almost nitro-esque. Thick and creamy though, super satisfying to swish between the teeth.
O - fantastic NEPA. Is that a thing? Great balance, not a total juicebomb with quite the hop bite for a pale. Doesn't taste or feel like 6% at all. More like 7-8%.

Pay attention to these guys because this beer has the pedigree to stand out in a crowded field of great New England breweries. It's a total juice bomb with orange and mango dominating the flavor profile. There are dank notes in the finish that help make this an actual beer and not a glass of juice. Super soft mouth and excellent drinkability. I'm impressed.
