Pours a deep yellow with white head. Your typical mosaic on the nose. Getting a lot of berry upfront but that gives way to some kind of rose watery flavors. It's very perfumey. I find rose water to be a bit overwhelming but if you do like it, I think you'll like this.

Can from Todd, thanks for the trade.
Hazy lemony yellow with a decent sized bubbly white head that slowly dissipates. Lemony orange and tropical fruitiness with hints of grass earth and pine. Light/faint bready malt to counter. Pretty nice IPA

Very solid daily drinker -- nice balance of green hop character, rindy citrus, and a gristy pale malt sweetness. Some yeast floaties in suspension. Fluffy mouthfeel

Poured into a 13 oz tulip glass not sure when it was canned. Pours a very attractive hazy yellow with a finger plus sticky white head that leaves big thick streaks of lace with excellent retention. 4.5
Smell is passionfruit, honeydew, mango, and apricot. 4.5
Taste follows passionfruit, mango, honeydew, and apricot. 4.5
Mouthfeel is bigger than average, soft gentle carbonation, not sticky or dry, and at 6.8% it goes down really easy. 4.75
Overall nothing flashy, but just a very tasty and well made NEIPA. 4.5
