A bright and highly aromatic hazy Double IPA. Notes of juicy berries, mango sorbet, and calamansi citrus are deliciously tasted on your first sip!

No date on can but very fresh according to the distributor's social media, into an Ethereal Brewing tulip (I really need another IPA glass).

Pours a dark, very hazy yellow, with massive fluffy white foam. Incredibly appealing, pretty much picture perfect NEIPA. Aroma is white grape and a little diesel funk as well as grapefruit and a little orange juice. Big orange flavors on the tongue with some juicy white grape, a little funk and dankness, and a lovely touch of sweet malts on the finish. Rather sticky, exceptionally fruit-forward, and quite smooth. I'm not getting much of the diesel funk on the aroma on the palate, it's got a little pithy bitterness on the back end though but mostly just great juicy fruits. Feel is good, large body and very dense. I don't know how much oat or wheat malt went into this beer, but it's rather soft and appropriately thick. Low alcohol presence and carbonation which lets the juicy flavors shine well.

Overall, I've been sleeping on Ever Grain. Their brown ale I had on nitro was lovely, and this is exactly what I was looking for in a double NEIPA. Juicy but not too sweet and well balanced with a soft mouthfeel. I'd love more information on the can, like malt and hop bills, as well as a date, but otherwise if I know it's fresh, I'm buying Ever Grain whenever I can.

Poured into a wide mouth, grip shaped goblet: color is murky, dense straw gold, head is off white with frothy and dense character, presents 2 fingers thick and lingers well with solid top.

Smell is subdued but notes of citrus pith, light berry, and oats emerge.

Taste is more pith, light tropical blend, hints of berry sweetness, moderate oat, some booziness.

Mouthfeel is lower carbonation, moderate sweetness, moderate bitterness, chalky finish.

Overall a big hazy DIPA that leans on citrus pith, light booze and oat character to stand out slightly from others in this subcategory.

16oz can from Tavour. Hazy orange golden pour, creamy white head, lacing. Fruity aroma, mango, melon with some citrus zest. Taste is juicy, zesty, mango, orange with a luscious creamy body. So smooth.

Canned on: ???????

A - Opaque dark medium golden orange color with dense, frothy lacing that clings to the sides of the glass.

S - Dense, fruity citrus with some pithy mango.

T - Pithy and fruity with mango, a very delicate amount of fruit rind spiciness, with a little bit of berry.

M - Big chewy body with a nice soft texture and minimal warming on the way down.

O - I wish this brewery would start date stamping their cans because it's always a crap shoot buying cans from them. This is a solid D-IPA and worth checking out.

Undated can into pint glass. Pours a murky light gold with a thin but persistent off-white head. Great lacing. Initial impression is juicy mango, pineapple, and pink grapefruit. Mouthfeel is soft, thick and sticky. Finish fades to a nice citrus sweetness, balanced by a bit of piney bitterness. Overall, another excellent DIPA rom Ever Grain.
