This hazy DIPA does everything fairly well, it just lacks that extra hop punch seen from top tier beers in style. Flavors are a comfy mix of peach, mango, kiwi, with a blanket of general citrus atop. It's maltiness (or oatedness) is a bit too prevalent for a DIPA in my opinion. I'd like a bit more of a challenge to my palate with some resin and dank bitterness. Otherwise, this is very approachable for the haze crew that eschew such beer hardships

M - Soft and chewy with some warming in the back of the throat.
O - The flavor profile with this one taste really off (as in flawed). Gave a lower score because of it, I usually like Ever Grain beers.

16oz can from Tavour. Hazy orange golden pour, thick fluffy head. Bready, malty aroma, sourdough, citrus. Taste brings a full, bready malt body with light orange peel, even lighter tropical fruit notes. Nice zippy bitterness grabs the palate and hangs on. This is super tasty, and had a beautiful feel

Undated (WTF) can into pint glass. Pours a murky gold with a nice off-white head. Great lacing! Initial impression is juicy citrus, mango, grapefruit, and orange, with a decent but not excessive amount of caramel sweetness. Mouthfeel is thick and sticky. Finish is semi-sweet, fading to a slight bitterness. Overall, another thoroughly enjoyable DIPA from Ever Grain!

16oz can into a pint glass. NO freshness dating.
Looks outstanding in the glass. Dirty dark burnt orange body. Small slightly off white head shrinks to a thick covering, leaving layers of lacing.
As often with the style (more accurately a NE dipa) there is a mixed fruit aroma, non citrus.
On tasting, thick, juicy, warming, hoppy, full, smooth. Fruit notes definitely non citrus, abv felt.
Mouth closer to full than medium, finish a thick warming fruit cocktail with a soothing hop prescence.
Overall, excellent beer, will try and pry another can from my son in law's fingers.
