This is a Foreign Objects New-American Hoppy Ale. You can't trust the God you trusted, so trust our waves of flavor instead...Mosaic and Azacca hops give you what you need to fill your time...huge aromas of citrus/grape, kiwi, passionfruit, and resinous American hop intensity spins this wheel! It's not for lack of trying...could you be happy with something else? In this case what we want is in fact what we get...

Poured from a 16 oz can into a tulip glass.
Pours a hazy golden orange color with 2 fingers of sudsy white head. The head leaves some splotchy lacing as it settles into a thin film.
The aroma is heavy on the citrus, bringing notes of grapefruit, tangerines, oranges, and lemon zest. There's some honey and herbal tea notes before a wave of pine.
The flavor follows the nose with lots of tangerines and grapefruit up front, followed by some oranges and lemon tea. Finishes piney and earthy, with a cereal grain malt backbone.
The feel is light bodied with moderate carbonation. Refreshing and dry, yet lacks the creamy softness expected of the style.
Overall, a great IPA that could legitimately pass for a Tree House beer if not for the mouthfeel. Definitely worth checking out.

Beautiful brew: good head production, good retention, and nice lacing, all atop a pulpy dark orange almost perfectly opaque body.
Deep, fruity aroma of peach, passion fruit, mango, resin, bright green herbs, lemon, honey, flowers, and mandarin orange.
Definitely closer to an APA than IPA on the palate, with grainy pale grains shining through, but swamped throughout with huge hop flavors. Ruby red grapefruit, mango, resin, mild-to-moderate dankness, peach, berries.
Very lively, carrying plenty of sting, but with a medium bodied fullness appropriate to the style.

L: Poured from a tallboy can to a snifter glass. Had an orange color and a very cloudy consistency. There was a half inch of foamy, somewhat long-lasting head. Excellent lacing.
S: A sweet aroma of citrus fruit, tropical fruit, hops, malt, and a slight vinous quality.
T: Tasted of a small amount of malt (mostly in the finish), a tinge of vinous quality (white grapes), a whole lot of citrus fruit (orange, in particular), a hint of kiwi fruit, and a lot of tropical fruit (passionfruit). A sweet, light, and effervescent flavor. It has a different profile than most NE IPA flavors, but it's still juicy and focused. Tasty stuff.
F: An average amount of carbonation with a smooth, creamy finish. Medium-bodied.
O: An incredibly likable beer. Drinkable.

16oz Spiegelau IPA glass. Pours creamy orange, light particulates floating about. Very little head on the pour, tiny bit of lacing.
Aroma: Tropical and light citrus. There is a nice blend of hops that give it a balanced aroma.
Taste: Tropical mostly, punchy passionfruit and mango? A nice resin base gives it slight piney flavor, without the bite.
MF: Creamy, medium overall. Very low bitterness and carbonation.
Overall: I really enjoyed this beer. For 6.1ABV, it hangs in there very well.
