Pours hazy orangey-gold,with light off-white creamy head.
Smells of orange, peach, coconut (slight), a vague tropical fruit mix ,white grape, and a light creaminess, as if it has lactose. No mention of lactose, so probably malt. A strong smell of unripe peach (pit) from the open can, but not the glass.
Taste is slightly unripe peach, bitter orange (Citrus aurantica) , a hint of sweet grapefruit, a melange of pear/white grape/honeydew, but mostly it's a modified, more bitter Fuzzy Navel .(I do like that taste profile. :) ) Moderate pleasant bitterness, that is on the more bitter (& better,IMHO) side of the NEIPA spectrum.
Feel is light-juicy , with moderate, fine carbonation, that has some light bite to it.
Overall, though nothing special in the current NEIPA world, it is well-done, and thoroughly enjoyable.
