Pours a milky orange with a 1F head and light lacing.
Smells of floral grassy hops and citrus.
Tastes of slightly tart grapefruit, orange, pineapple and mango with a slightly bitter finish.
Medium light body with light carbonation. Crisp, dry mouthfeel.
This is a very drinkable, very juicy NEIPA.

Pours a bright, opaque yellow with a short lived white head. The aroma is orange juice, pulp, and a hint of acid. The flavor is orange juice with hint of grapefruit and berries. There's a slight bitterness in the finish. It's drier than expected, medium bodied, and a bit crisp. Overall a very nice beer that I'm glad to have tried and wouldn't having again.

Pours a hazy golden straw color with a creamy white head that provides significant lacing. Gorgeous hazy. The nose features plentiful mango and passion fruit notes, with some ripe oranges aromas as well.
The taste is absolutely crammed with mango and passion fruit flavors, and there’s a nice bit of ripe orange as well. Delicious beer.
The mouthfeel is full and surprisingly “spritzy.” This is WAAAAAY too drinkable for an 8.2% ABV beer, and is executed exceptionally well. I need more beer from these guys in my beer nerd life.

Canned 4/20 / 2023. Picked up single can at Boston's Fort Point Market. Enjoyed back in Florida. Wish i brought back more.
Pours a 1 inch head, good retention, somewhat cloudy, light stew yellow.
Smells like a wild ale, very yeasty smelling, similar aroma as their Helo Bender DIPA, different for sure, like it.
Taste is very smooth and creamy, semi sweat, minor hop burn and so crushable. the 8.2% is extremely disguised and dangerous. So Chushable!!
Overall one of the best DIPA/NEIPA i've tried yet to date.
Bonis: the name, One of the best alt-rock bands ever. Stephen Malkmus has to be happy about this incredible beer!

Classic Vermont NEIPA. Hazy gold, has a small head but that’s ok, so does my dog. Juicy on the front, pleasantly bitter hop bite on the back. Drink em all day, especially with a view of the Adirondacks over the lake, but careful with the ABV over 8%, it’ll sneak up on you as it doesn’t read boozy.

16oz can dated 10/16/22.
Pours hazy yellow with an inch-plus head of white. Peach, orange, and apricots in the nose. Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Juicy but balanced on the palate with ripe tropicals. Finishes with minimal malt or bitterness.
