16oz. can into a Founders snifter.
Orange juice color with an awesome head and lace. Nose is full-on mosaic. Dank fruit wax, cantaloupe, fruit gummy, and sweet pineapple. Very aromatic. Beer opens orange, clementine, and cantaloupe. I get tropical fruit rind with loads of cane sugar and fructose sweetness. Ends the same. Body is light to medium with moderate carbonation. Light yet with some substance on the palate. Juicy and dry going down with a long, lingering aftertaste.
Very solid though I'm not the biggest fan of the mosaic profile.

Best local beer i've had all year, drink fresh and store cold. Super grapefruity. Looks, tastes, smells juicy. Only says mosaic but must have citra hops in there as well. Similar tasting to juice bomb nepali or king sue.

Appearance - Pours completely opaque with a huge yellowish white head excellent retention. Tons of lacing.
Aroma - Tons of pineapple, mango, papaya, tangerine, fresh wet earthy hops, citrus peel.
Taste - Super sweet mango, pineapple papaya, not much bitterness but the sweet tropical fruit is very mild and easy going.
Feel - Super creamy full feel, nice dry finish.
Overall - Pretty excellent NEIPA, flavors are amazing and feel is stellar.

Pours a cloudy yellow with a one inch fluffy white head that left excellent lacing. Smells of tropical and citrus fruits. Tastes of ripe mango, tangerine, orange peel, sweet grapefruit, peach and a hint of pine. On the light side of full bodied, medium carbonation, mild bitterness, creamy mouth feel.

Dude! Bae is Grapefruit Joose Bomb! Insane pungent, creamy, sappy citrus fruit (mostly yellow grapefruit) on the nose, & follows through on palate. Some earthy, dank pine in finish, but very low IBU's.
