Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass.

Dark orange, nearly amber like body color with a faint hint of haze and some noticeable carbonation. Fluffy topped three finger tall head, with some medium sized bubbled retention and a faint slightly darker white head color.

Decent aroma with an expected hop forward note. Citrus with a mix of actual biscuit malt and cookie and touching dark syrup sensations. Senses faint herb to pine like bitterness with a hint of dark malt presence.

Palate is nice if a bit hinting old school. Mid palate has an old school almost caramel sensing amber malt backbone with sweetness of treacle and red fruit. Some other balance of hop kicks in with faint orange, but even more of a spiced herbality particularly on the aftertaste. Good mixing balance of malt and hops almost coming off 50/50.

Is this an amber NEIPA? Not quite but it certainly comes off more like an old school hopped up amber ale than carrying on haze or NEIPA character. Still a solid and unique brew regardless.

Hazy gold appearance with a small fast fading head and very little lacing. Tropical fruits stand out in the aroma while notes of citrus play in the background. Taste is pretty straightforward for the style: fruit centric, hoppy but less bitter and smoother on the palate. Dry lingering finish. Could not find any dating on the can.

16oz can from Total Wine. Hazy yellow golden pour, wispy head. Grapefruit peel aroma, fruity, juicy. taste stays the course with more juicy citrus, sweet and a bit tangy at the finish. Really light on the palate. Easy to drink.

A coworker spoke very highly of this brewery so I was excited to try a single of this. Pours a pale yellow ocher with an opaque center and thin white head leaving solid lace. Nose is citrus and light medicinal hops.

This has a nice biscuit note with heavy doses of citrus, herbal and medicinal again. Texture is stiff yet flexible. This is kind of light and mellow for the style but very drinkable.
