I think this was a way underrated brew - admittedly I wanted to grab this because of the link to Dancing Gnome (my local brewery), but it ended up far surpassing my expectations - creamy, fluffy, great flavor - pours a golden bright haze. Very solid.

A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy pale whitish yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a narrow collar around the edge and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of lime and gooseberry are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has additional notes of lychee. There is a light amount of bitterness.
M: It feels just about medium-bodied and somewhat crisp on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I found this beer to be quite easy to drink considering its strength.

Opaque yellow, with 1.5 finger ivory head.

Smells of apricot, pineapple juice, & vague citrus mix.

Taste is grapefruit, pineapple, slightly tangy apricot, slight bitter herbal flavor (sage+ agastache [anise hyssop] ), and a bit of yeast & bready malt.

Feel is light-medium & juicy, with moderate, very fine, slightly creamy carbonation tingle.

Overall, seems like a standard NEIPA, at first, but my appreciation grew with each sip, so consider it better than the norm. Thoroughly enjoyable. :)
