It is a hazy-pale looking IPA. It smells like an IPA should: hoppy with a hint of citrus and is smooth with a medium body.

Just perfect. Bright sunshine yellow with a thick cloud of haze. Tons of white foamy head and lacing that coats my glass thoroughly.
Nose is big and juicy. Pineapple and citrus. Mangos and guava. Light sugary malt and a mild peppery edge. Sweet, fruity, multifaceted and wonderful.
Superb taste. Malt front is followed by juicy hoppiness. Low bitterness with a dry and lightly hoppy finish.
Crisp and refreshing. Lightly creamy carbonation. Medium weight makes this a real good candidate for seasoning.
This is a top tier NEIPA. Just perfect anytime.

DATE: April 2, 2021... OCCASION Day Two of the IPA Fest begins with an awesome-looking can... GLASSWARE: Duvel snifter... a bright orange body, opaque and hazy… its head is swirling, like a cirrus-clouded sky... a bit dank, a bit sunny, with citrus front and center… hints of suntan lotion (really), light cracker as well, and berry is present... creamy, medium-bodied, with an orange juice-like acidity…easy-drinking and refreshing at its ABV strength... after a six-pack of IPAs last night, this begins the night rather mellow, despite its hops’ fearsome foursome… orange cream, lemon grass, garden herbs, with a soft caramel and cracker undertow... this is a nice mix of hops heavy hitters, but it might not measure up to the sum of its parts…that said, it is a beer whose experience approximates the content and aesthetic of its can’s art… great explanation of that from Mike…

Poured from can into tulip good 1+ finger cream colored head, good retention and excellent lacing. Hazy bright golden in the glass. Bright citrus on the nose and a touch of pineapple. Taste is citrus right out of the gate along with a little pineapple, a slight minerality, and not much malt complexity, beer just kinds of fades off, little or no bitterness to speak of, but yet not overly sweet. Slight residual orange left on the palate. Easy drinker

From IPAFEST and notes. !6 ounce can dated 3/19/21 Has a lemon juicy color and a citrus lemon aroma. Tastes light hoppy, acidic citrus and no bitterness. Easy drinking mouthfeel. Overall a very good beer.

Foggy yellow pour with a white sudsy cap and lacing. Piney hops giving off aromas of grapefruit, lime, passion fruit, orange, peach and lychee, but intensity is lower. Taste has huge earthy and pungent piney hops, dankness with zesty citrus and lemongrass. Kind of bland in the middle before the hops finish. Feel is light, bright, yet doesn't get too thin, plenty dank and hop textures though.

Social Fermentation from Revision Brewing. 16 oz can stored at home at 42 degrees. Received from Half Time for IPA Cyberfest 2021, $127.19 (Including shipping) for 12 16 oz cans ($ 0.662/oz). Reviewed 6/5/21. Note that I use DD/MM/YY protocol.
Date on bottom of can smeared and illegible. Served at 46.4 degrees in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter. Final temperature 55.2 degrees.
Appearance – 3.5.
First pour – Straw (SRM3), hazy.
Body – Pale Gold (SRM 4), murky and opaque. When rear-lite, same.
Head – Average (Maximum four cm, aggressive center pour), white smoke, high density, average retention, diminishing to a seven mm crown fed by slight effervescence and a rocky partial cap. Second pour produces a high density 0.4 cm head.
Lacing – Good. Multiple bands of extremely tiny to small bubbles with occasional irregular stalactites and stumpy columns connecting the bands.
Aroma – 3.75 – Moderate generic citrus and a touch of pine. No malt, no yeast.
Flavor – 4 – Begins with citrus, as the nose and hop bill suggest. There are some orange and pineapple flavors. No malt, no yeast. No ethanol (6.5% ABV, as marked on container) taste or aroma. Gastric warming begins slowly and remains at a minimal level. No dimethylsulfide or diacetyl. Ends with a bit of pine resin.
Palate – 4 – Medium, approaching creamy, soft carbonation.
Final impression and summation: 3.75 Decent NEIPA. Flavor and aroma are mostly citrus and a little pine, as expected from the hop bill. Looks good and has a reasonable ABV and a very good palate. Overall, not spectacular but definitely poundable.

Pours hazy yellow with a medium white head. Aroma is the high point, very hop floral and layered. Taste is hoppy citrus and tropical fruit. Feel is good, smooth and coating. Overall smells great, tastes good.

-cloudy yellow-orange can pour ( turgid at the bottom of this can, but cool) with a 1.5 cm foam cap.
The aroma is citrus forward and a bit tingly.
The flavor is of tangerines and some lemon, but the malt aspects are lacking. Hop bitterness is moderate.
The mouthfeel is smooth.
I have had this in the past and would pick it up again.

Pours a hazy golden straw color with a soapy off-white head that provides beautiful lacing on the glass. The nose is dank and tropical citrus notes, which translates directly to the taste in ripe oranges, mango, pineapple, passion fruit, and some lemon. Wow.
This is a delicious dank, fruity juice bomb that approaches world-class, IMHO. A magnificent beer from a magnificent brewery.
