Hazy, orange color. Nice looking, big, white head. Citrus, stone fruits, melon, and tropical fruits in the aroma. Soft, juicy, and hoppy. Pleasant hoppy bitterness.

Poured from 16oz can into my BeerAdvocate teku. The date on my can rather crypically says “24079”, so I am guessing sometime mid-March for the canning date? Always excited to try a top 100 beer in any style!
Appearance: medium orange hue with a moderate haze and two fingres of frothy ivory foam. Seems legit.
Smell: stone fruit, a hint of orange, and maybe just a skosh of tropical dankness. Nothing crazy here, but a very nice mélange of classic hazy aromas.
Taste: very interesting; different than the aroma, for sure. There’s the orange and the stone fruit, but it is at once both earthier and with a sharper acidic note than the aroma. Maybe it’s just not my jam; maybe this is one of those beers that just has to be drunk ultra fresh. It’s not bad; it’s an interesting hazy for sure, but I wouldn’t put it in the highest echelons of the style.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and creaminess.
Overall: yeah, an interesting and decent enough hazy, but not one I would be likely to come back to. Even NEIPAs that are not totally my taste are still, after all, NEIPAs.

16oz can picked up at Cheap Charlies in Gresham, OR
Poured into a La Fin du Monde tulip
p- cloudy dark orange w/ a 1f white head; fairly heavy lacing left behind
n- med nose of lightly sweet, juicy and sharp citrus notes
t- follows nose with a big dose of citrus, supplemented by mango and light leafy green hops; biscuity malt supports; some alcohol heat and a touch of green hop burn comes out as it warms (doesn't detract, though); solid profile
mf- med verging on med-full bodied; med-high carb
o- while this is undoubtedly a well-crafted and enjoyable DIPA, it didn't quite live up to the expectations I had for it; was hoping for it to be a little more memorable; with that being said, I'm happy I was able to try it nonetheless

Really pleasing nose, prominent notes of fresh, ripe, sweet oranges
Taste follows the nose, bright and juicy.
Full bodied, a bit chewy.
Quite a standout

Pale orange, light fluffy head and lacing. Dank and citrusy scents. Taste is not as strong but also dank snd citrusy. Slight bitter undercurrent. Medium bodied, mouth watering finish, subtle booziness, easy sipper. Good, but I like the Triple Orange Starfish a bit more.

A Tavour Treat. Pours a gold-yellow color with a minimal head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of grapefuit and citrus. Taste is tangy and slightly sweet grapefuit. Not as bitter as other NEIPAs. A very good brew
