From a 16oz can, dated 07/27/23. Served in an IPA glass.
Pours a cloudy dull orange juice-colour with two-plus fingers of pouffy, whipped egg white-like head. Retention is excellent, leaving a puffball cap and wads of sticky lacing.
Nose is soft and mildly fruity. Aroma of sweet citrus and white cake.
Taste is baking soda biscuity with satisfying citrus-type and rindy bitterness front to back. Tasting peach and grapefruit, orange slices and kiwi. A fairly minor vinous juice-box berry note in the sinuses on toward the finish but mostly that constant, clean bitterness. Definitely berry in the aftertaste, though.
Feel is clean and quenching, medium-light bodied with bright, zesty carbonation. Palate-consuming fine, prickly hop tingles and a little stickiness.
Very nice. The fruit flavours and perceived bitterness are understated and it took me a couple of sips to appreciate what I was tasting. I don’t think I would have classified this as an NEIPA - it’s far too well balanced and restrained and, barring the abv, could easily pass as an APA.

a good drinking IPA, can from the source. which is not very malty or oaty at all. Hops all to give bitterness rather than tropical flavour peaks. Better than average.

Can: Poured a cloudy/hazy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of tropical hoppy undertones with nice juicy hoppy notes. Taste is also a nice mix of citrusy and juicy hops notes with some juicy hoppy undertones and dry finish with hints of residual sugar notes.Body is full with good carbonation. Solid NEIPA with nice juicy hops undertones.
