Another, the same but different, blend from Turning Point that doesn't let you down. An excellent and tasty juice bomb that pours an orange, pineapple juice color with a thick creamy head. The smell is rather light and unremarkable but taste is muy mucho bueno grande. Again, an excellent blend of hops and a smooth bitterness that enhances this beer. Crisp and citrus. Smooth and creamy. Overall I hope they brew this again but they'll have another one soon that will make you forget the last good ones you had. Turning Point is turning out the juice. KEEP IT COMIN' ON...And always remember

A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy pale yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high off white head that left a short head covering the surface and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of passion fruit and pineapple are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has additional notes of peaches. Little to no bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied and very juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This New England IPA is very easy to drink and has complex aromas and flavors of Australian hops.

Hazy yellow pour, some lacing and thin head retention. The smell has a great hoppy aroma to it. The taste has a pungent hop bitterness which grows with each sip. The feel is good, medium bodied not too thick or thin. Overall very good beer!!

Pours a hazy, murky pale orange color. 2 finger white frothy head. Head retention is good. Beautiful lacing on the glass.
The nose is nice pine hop aroma to me, along with some orange, but there's also a funky aroma as well mixed in to the overall aroma.
Taste - Not much pine, but tons of citrus, and a slight funk mixed in for added measure. I think I get a mango flavor here, and some pineapple.
Full bodied. Thick and creamy feeling. Juicy.
Tasty, and another damn good beer from Turning Point.

Had it on tap at the brewery. Thin head with good lacing atop a hazy yellow body. Decent citrus smell and taste. Flavors of orange and a bit of cream. Some pleasant bitterness but a bit too dry.
