16oz can dated 1/25/24.

Pours hazy yellow with a half-inch head of white. Moderate retention and lacing. Melon, lemon-lime, white wine in the nose. Medium bodied with a somewhat watery mouthfeel. Pithy citrus on the palate with minimal malt or bitterness. Candied grapefruit, unripe peach, and cantaloupe. Finishes juicy with wine-like undertones.

 

Appearance: Pours a cloudy honey color with a one finger head; decent retention and a smattering of dots

Smell: Papaya, pineapple and orange pith

Taste: Pithy more than juicy, the papaya and pineapple flavors quickly cede ground to the orange and pith; moderately bitter, through the middle and into the finish with a hint of vanilla cream lingering into the finish, creating a creamsicle impact

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: A middle of the road NE IPA; with two months in the can some of the juicy character may have faded

Collaboration with Other Half

Bottom of can reads:

Moderate pour yields a 1/2 inch white head over a murky yellow body with scant lacing. Nose of orange and creamsicle. Taste goes directly to bitter orange pith that the lactose can't help. Feel is hindered by said lactose as carbonation is less than ideal. Overall, yet another Other Half collab that, for me, fails to deliver. Cheers!

ridiculously hazy, nice fluffy bright white head. aromas are pulpy OJ, slightly acidic, hints of pineapple and piney dankness. palate is orange juice, pithy grapefruit peel, spicy pinapple, mellow cream, herbaceous and slightly vegetal quality that almost verges on being 'hot' ... overall this one seems like it has potential but as a whole its not particularly enjoyable to me beause of the harshness.
