Served on tap at Foam at 11 AM on a perfect fall day.
Serves up deep hazy glowing sunny color with a tinge of orange. One finger of head.
Aromas are a ton of orange and some hopiness in back.
Flavors are a lot like a mimosa with an IPA instead of champagne. A lot of juice here.
Mouthfeel is excellent.
Overall, a great beer but with a touch too much tangerine juice for me.

On tap at the brewery.
The appearance was a semi-golden bronzed yellow color with a nice cap of a little white foamy head. Mild lace strewn about.
The aroma had a fabulous blend of semi-sweet to bitter character of pine, tangerine pulp, mango puree, and a sweet freshly cut grass.
The flavor bled into each other crisp and sweetly throwing all caution to the wind of superbely meshing the bitter juicy side of the pine to the mango and tangerine pulp. Nice touchdown smooth aftertaste of mango, pine and tangerine.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fine sessionability about it. Nothing distractible but fully engaging my tongue with a low carbonation and an appropriate ABV.
Overall, what a fine New England styled DIPA, well worthy of coming back to.
