Appearance: Pours a cloudy goldenstraw with a two finger head; strong persistance and squiggles of lacing

Smell: Pineapple SweetTarts with a strong lemon zest aspect

Taste: Pineapple forward with a very bitter lemon edge; the finish is extraordinarily dry

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation

Overall: This takes the NE IPA into a totally different territory; it will please those who like bitter lemon flavors but it is not very approachable for those expecting a tropical juice bomb; interesting, but I don't think this is a direction in which the next wave of IPAs will go

Saved this (my only one) for when I got home from an eclipse party in East Bumfuck, VT.

Canned on 04/03/24.
Rahu


Moderate pour yields a 3/4 inch white head over a very cloudy body with semi-sticky lacing.

Nose of tropical fruit including pineapple and papaya with a hint of melon.

Taste has a bit of that pineapple bite that wakes you up;
other tropical flavors weave in and out and finishing with bitter pineapple.

Good feel with near medium carbonation.

Overall, if you have any of these left, drink 'em!
The eclipse is over you fools!!

Cheers!!!
