6 oz draft pour at Lures Bar & Grille. Pours a hazy yellow/orange color. Aroma and flavor feature slightly sweet wheat, citrus, and tropical fruit. Some sour passionfruit as well, not enough to make it come across as a sour IPA, but there is a definite (and unexpected) tanginess to the fruit flavor. Overall it's tasty but not one of my favorite NEIPAs recently.

Pours a hazy light orange with soft, soapy head.
Smell is juicy and sweet with notes of citrus, pineapple and mango. Crisp and fruity with some hints of orange peel.
Taste is juicy and a bit sweet and dank. Notes of mango, melon and papaya. Soft bitterness with some mineral, fruity hints.
Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy and well carbonated.
Overall, a very drinkable, balanced 9%-er from Foam.

On tap, pours a milky, hazy deep gold. Smell is a huge hit of hops, with tons of citrus and tropical fruit. Taste follows. I'm a big fan of Galaxy hops, and this beer delivers. Well made and delicious.

Insanely good NEDIPA. It's actually bitter, super tropical, dank, fruity and just a total flavor bomb. The ripe papaya and mango are just through the roof. One of the best NEDIPAs I've had.
