This seemingly soft spoken style has now found its voice. What started as a New England Pale Ale has been amped up with a double dry-hopping of Mosaic and Vic Secret.

16 fl oz pull-tab can ran me $4.99 USD plus tax at a New Orleans, Louisiana beer store:
5.0% ABV.
Thin and a bit weak. Doesn't really bring Mosaic's full potential to the table. Hop profile is fine, but not exemplary...floral, grape-redolent, pineapple-y, maybe vague passionfruit? Pale malt/2-row is all I get from the malt backbone.
Underwhelming. It's a drinkable pale ale, but hop pungency is limited and Mosaic isn't utilized to its utmost (or, really, at all). I'd honestly rather drink Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, 3 Floyds' Zombie Dust, or any of the other pale ales on the market that are a hell of a lot better than this and cost a fraction of what this does...

Canned 8/7/19; drank 9/7/19 @ the Yarchives.
Cloudy orange/yellow appearance.
A rough pour yielded a huge off-white head; strong, frothy lace.
Tangerine & dry wheat notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Tangerine & faint table sugar flavors up front; dry wheat notes on the finish.
Mild & pretty far from a "New England" style, save for it's appearance. Not one to hunt down.

A: Very hazy gold/yellow with massive foamy head and sticky lacing.
N: Getting citrus, grapefruit, resin notes, some grapes, and grass.
T: Up front you get a soft citrus hit with some light grape notes then a resin bitterness takes hold. Some pine notes and grassy notes remain on finish.
M: Starts soft then the resin/bitterness takes hold, medium feel.
O: I wish the bitterness was in the background, things started well then it got lost in the hop burn.

Can into pint glass. Pours a hazy light amber with a pillowy, off-white head. Initial impression is somewhat bitter, resinous, citrus-y, and astringent. Vic Secret is not in the forefront, which is sort of a disappointment. Mouthfeel is medium, as is carbonation. Finish is dry with a slight hops bitterness. Good but not great IPA.
