Poured from a 16oz can into a flared/small bottom glass - which may or may not be the right vessel for an NEIPA? Hazy honey-colored with fair-sized head, even when poured at a tilt, daintily. Anyway - it's good! Not too bitter, not too fruity. Just a nice, light citrus feel with a hint of "dank" as indicated on can. But no wayward smell or cloying aftertaste, dank you!

16 oz can from Tavour. Orange golden pour, one finger head subsides to a patchy cap. Fruity, citrus aroma with some tropical notes. Taste is more bitter than fruity, citrus zest, grapefruit, pear nectar.

This is a wonderful NEIPA. Lamplighter got everything right. The pour provides a rich head, and the golden hue provides a cloud, but iridescent, transparency. They got the taste just right, with notes of grapefruit, orange and pineapple (but not sweet), and hints of a day spent lying under white pines. The citrus in this NEIPA is fresh, engaging with my taste buds and waking up every part of my palate.

This beer has all the check boxes. Nose is perfectly citrus. Taste has the citrus and piney overtones that give way to nice bitterness. Very good, no GREAT beer!

Look: Golden orange and hazy, foamy white head and marbled lacing on the glass.
Smell: Melons and lemon juice, some booze and some grainy malt.
Taste: Mango and pine resin, some malt in the aftertaste. Not too much bitterness.
Feel: Light and easy to drink, good carbonation.
Overall: Pretty good all around.
