Pours cloudy orange color with a 2 finger thick foamy head that looked beige colored, fading on the faster side and leaving no lacing. Smells of tangerine, orange juice, pineapple, grapefruit and guava juice, mixed with biscuit, toasted grains, light caramel and floral spices. Tastes pretty much like it smells but with the additions of lemon zest, starfruit, peppery spices and a dash of brown sugar.

Note: As opposed to the 9% ABV that the original poster listed, the can says 8%.

A: Poured from the can into a Tree House tulip. Body is hazy, juicy light-golden/yellow, with a near-2-finger foamy white head.

S: Up front, it's modestly sweet - think a bread-doughy foundation - but then there's a big hit of green, raw hops. Once you notice that, you won't notice anything but that thereafter.

T: Pine needles, pine resin and tar, and grassy hops. Strong lingering bitterness.

M: Surprisingly muted, and pleasant, in the feel. Creamy, very low carbonation. Washes over the palate nicely - leaving the tongue coated in bitterness.

O: A bit of a surprise - most NE IPAs are nowhere near this bitter. Really fresh and raw. "I Dream in Green" is more like it.

Hazy peach nectar color with tight, lingering foam. Nose is dark, deep, dank resin: walnut shells, nelon-mango slush and green plantain. There's a pithy citrus, but I wouldn't characterize it as bright. The mouthfeel was medium and smooth, but a little sticky, allowing the flavors to linger. Although juicy by nature this wouldn't be for fans of sweet nectar. It has a pronounced white pepper spiciness along with a citrus rind sourness. Underripe strawberry, spicy scape-basil herb pistou. Overall, earth and spice and citrus dominate accentuated by a coarse minerality.

Can to tulip. Stamped on the bottom 03/20/20.
The appearance was a very nice looking bronzed orange color with a small-ish film of a white little head. Subtle film of sticky lace. Coated slightly in a ring but that slid off.
The aroma gathered together some white pepper, grassy hop tones, soft pineapple then some orange to citrusy backing just before a little bit of pine came in.
The flavor leaned towards a general blend of sweet to bitter citrusy to pineapple-like qualities rolling through some clean biscuity malts. Not much of an aftertaste but was there seemed to be a little bit of orange pulp and grassy hops.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Good carbonation. Some prickliness on my tongue. Finishes with some piney dryness and a touch of grassy hops.
Overall, could be construed as a New England styled one for the look but hey who's arguing if it's really this good!
