Pours pale yellow, with an unbelievably fluffy white head. Smells fruity, tropical. Super smooth mouthfeel, with just a bit of hop spicyness to add some heat. Taste is sweet, lightly tart, and very fruity, plenty of pineapple / Citra. Amazing balance.

Can to tulip glass , can courtesy of DC.
Look: Hazy dark yellow, Medium creamy off white head,small carbonation, legs. Excellent retention.
Aroma: very juicy, medium strength. Pinespple, orange, passion fruit.
Taste: tons of tangerine, followed by pineapple, mango, passion fruit, finishes with light bittering hints of palm, grass and ginger.
Insanely tasty.
Feel: medium body, good sneaky carbonation. Smooth on tounge also. Drinks so easy...worried I may finish this too quickly.
Incredible beer. Need to get more Root+Branch.

*updating my review as I have my last can today, 30Oct2020. The nose has gained this richer tropical depth I didn't get at first, really excellent. That citrus/tangerine character still leads on both the nose and swallow, but some time has really bumped this beer up for me. And to be clear, it's not a "this beer is green" and then settled, rather it's evolved*
Poured from a can (no date I could find, released 09Oct2020) into a R+B glass
L: pours a hazy light and vibrant orange yellow with a very thick white head. Impressive thick lacing left with each sip, high protein content of those oats coming through
S: great citrus-forward tropical nose, full aroma with a bit sweetness. Get melon, passionfruit, peach; citrusy orange/grapefruit notes, tangerine lead. Less overpowering dank and more balanced and inviting
T: follows the nose well, delivering those soft tropical and citrusy notes. Getting a nice and soft citrusy bitterness at the forefront with a more subdued peach/passionfruit in the background. Flavor fades into the medium finish, mostly that soft bitterness sticking around
F: medium carbonation, medium body, smooth, soft. Lots of focus on body in the grain bill, shows in the feel, but almost feels thin by a hair *don't get that thin character from this 30Oct2020 can*
O: a very good NEIPA, as expected from these guys. Mouthfeel is great, really like the nose, the taste is a little light for me and where I find this falling short - happy to sip it
