Another solid offering from Marsh. Definitely nailing all the finer points of the NEIPA style. Second favorite yet, next to Upload. Would certainly get more of this if I see it.

Poured from a tallboy can into a Dogfish Head tulip
L: Opaque golden pour with thick foamy white head. Great lacing.
S: Citrus and pineapple. Fruity.
T.F: Strong orange/tangerine citrus, pineapple, and papaya. Juicy... some stone fruit. Modest bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel and medium bodied. ABV well hidden.
O: Another very good NEIPA from Marsh Island. I think I prefer 'Pulse' but this is still pretty great.

Beer is hazy straw colored. Nice a little bit of lacing. Aroma is an assertive pineapple with notes of dank orange. Taste follows the nose: pineapple, mango, bitter orange. Mouthfeel is good. It's heavy without being overbearing. Overall, a very juicy, big IPA. Not quite in the top tier of Maine IPAs, but very good. Would definitely buy again. Delicious.

16oz undated can.
Pours milky gold with a short-lived head of white. Minimal retention or lacing. Pungently hoppy in the nose with plenty of pithy, tropical citrus. Grapefruit, peach, pineapple, and candied orange. Medium bodied with a creamy, slightly chalky mouthfeel. Juicy citrus with zero malt and minimal bitterness on the palate. Pineapple, peach, and grapefruit. Finishes dry with lingering tropicals.

Looks like orange juice. Exactly how I want my neipas to look. Whats nice about this one is that its dry at the start and turns super juicy towards the end and finishes with a nice dank, wet feel. Solid one. We need more like this.

Poured into a 16 oz Hopslam Snulip glass canned 4/27/19. Pours a very hazy attractive dark yellow with a massive 2 plus finger sticky slightly off white head that leaves thick rings of webby lace as it slowly settles. 4.5
Smell is papaya, cantaloupe, tangerine, pineapple, and a hint of grapefruit rind. 4.25
Taste follows follows tropical front to back papaya, melon, pineapple, apricot, mandarin, and just tiny hit of grapefruit extremely well balanced. 4.5
Mouthfeel is big, soft and gentle on the palate, moderate life, and at 8.5% ABV extremely approachable. 4.5
Overall this is excellent, I love what this brewery has been doing and you can find it fresh on the shelf often. 4.5
