Our buddy, Davey, the conductor of Orchestrated Minds out of Fort Lauderdale is making some of the most bangin' IPA's in the state of Florida & recently came up for a couple days to bang out a couple brews, learn the finer points of Juicy Lucy' & conduct some super serious business in regards to our hand selected Amarillo, El Dorado, El Dorado Cryo, Citra and Citra Cryo. You're gonna have to talk to the HR department about this one.

Pours a hazy straw yellow with a finger of head that settles quickly to a thin ring with some lacing. Aroma of pineapple and mango. Taste follows nose. Very enjoyable.

Appearance: Pours a nearly completely hazy (10% clarity) light and pale yellow color with a moderate white head. SRM of 5-6. (4.25)
Aroma: Moderate aromas of orange, juicy melon, berries, some pineapple and mango before some sweet berries. Berry flowers on the finish. (4.25)
Flavor: Strong and juicy flavors of tropical citrus, melon, mango, pineapple. Some berry notes balanced by some floral qualities underneath. Ultimately finishes sweet from the berries. Not overly so. (4.25)
Feel: Heavier-bodied, appropriate carbonation, finishes balanced soft, and smooth. (4.25)
Compared to BlackStack Stack at the Lab: Pours slightly hazier and lighter. Similar aromas. Slightly more floral notes. More pineapple and berry flower notes. Less mango and berry sweetness.
Compared to Welderks Cloud Bits 10/14/22: Pours lighter, milder aromas. More citrus, mango, pine. Less sweet and juicy pineapple and berries. Lighter, cleaner, and drinks more balanced with a fuller and softer body. Winner: BlackStack
Compared to Portage JuiceTree 11/11/2022: Pours lighter and hazier, similar aromas. More mango, blueberry, and pineapple. Less orange, papaya, berry flower. Slightly sweeter and more astringency.
Overall: A nice imperial NEIPA here. It has the classic BlackStack flavors. There's sweet pineapple, mango. sweet berries here. A decent floral note. A soft, smooth and silky body without being too sweet. Its seems to get better the more I try of this one. (Rating: 4.30 and much better on my subsequent reviews)
