A pale yellow-orange hazy double IPA double dry hopped with Mosaic, Cascade and Cashmere hops. Citrus and tropical aroma and bright flavors to match. The use of extra pale pils and wheat to give clean malt, milky color, and a smooth full body. A touch of citrus pith on the finish but very low bitterness and carbonation.

Thanks Damon aka SourNomad.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a strong cloudy opaque yellow color with a good pace of head dissipation. No lace.
The aroma had a wonderful blend of sweet citrus to tropical fruits rolling over some subtle sweet onion.
The flavor has a nice sturdy sweet blend of the citrus and tropical fruit up front slowly sliding into the onion sweetness. Slight danky nurturing leading into a sly sticky fruity aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Nice low carbonation and expected ABV. Smooth tropical fruity sweet and semi-sticky finish.
Overall, very nicely done New England styled DIPA well worthy of having again.
