Pours an iridescent hazy straw color, appropriate foamy head. Tropical hop aroma. Great citrusy hop flavors. 8% ABV is well hidden. Overall a really good IPA, not quite a DIPA despite the ABV, would drink again!

7/9/19 canning date for this 16 ouncer.
Full on juicy looking and fully hazed up NEIPA, leaving some minor fine sheeting.
Tropical fruit sniff with a touch more resininess then is common for the style.
Big, bold and flavorful with pineapple, grapefruit and lime notes all coming to mind. worthy creation...go get some

Tried this at Eli Cannon's in Middletown, CT. Came in a tulip glass with about a half finger of head leaving behind a soapy lacing. Cloudy in appearance but nice. The scent is very citrus forward. The taste is a burst of citrus flavors- very pleasing. Fizzy mouthfeel and not too oily. Nice dipa.

Kinsmen is producing good beer, I had a flight the day of my visit and the Yup/Nope was the highlight. Ironically it was more drinkable and tastier than the IPA. The color was a pale orange, and I would describe it as the color you get when an orange creamsicle begins to melt and the orange and cream mix, not when it's completely liquid but at the beginning when the colors meet. You definitely taste citrus and get floral notes up front and for it being a DIPA, it is not overpowering.
