Poured from a 16oz can into a spieglau glass
Look: Hazy orange withe a thick white head. Translucent.
Smell: Sweet and fruity. Papaya, guava, apricot, and melon.
Taste: Like the smell. Almost all hops. With a touch of honey sweetness.
Feel: Soft and a bit too thick for the style. Mild alcohol. Soft carbonation.
Overall: A good NEIPA but not the best I have had from Commonwealth.

L: Poured from a tallboy can to a snifter glass. Had a golden yellow color and a cloudy consistency. There was a half inch of foamy, somewhat long-lasting head. Excellent lacing.
S: A pretty good aroma of hops, citrus fruit, an earthy quality, malt, and tropical fruit.
T: Tasted of a bit of malt (mostly in the finish, not a big factor), some of the earthy quality (a subtle presence), a good amount of hops (a major element), some citrus fruit (orange, in particular), and a little tropical fruit (mango, especially). This is a sharp, hops-forward flavor. It has a good amount of fruit, but the hops take center stage.
F: A decent amount of carbonation with a smooth finish. Medium-bodied.
O: A solidly made DIPA. Worth a look.
