You, Nature, Trees
Turning Point Beer

L- Pours a deep golden yellow and hazy NEIPA with a solid and frothy rocky head.
S- A nice meld of sweet and tangy orange/citrus and tropical fruits, with earthy pine and grassy notes.
T-Solid citrus sweetness, followed by a vegetal earthiness and a strong bitter bite. I would say the bitterness outweighs the other notes.
F-Creamy body, subtle carbonation.
O-A really good NEIPA, but nothing really special in my opinion. It leans earthy/vegetal to me with nice notes of citrus. Heavily bitter on the end. I'd have it again, but probably wouldn't buy it again.

 

 

From a 16 oz. can into a snulip glass, this beer pours out like a light orange juice. It forms a finger worth of rocky white crown.

The nose carries some cracker mixing with citrus notes and somewhat floral hops in the back.

The taste comes in with some orange peel, citrus rind, mango and pineapple before floating into cracker and oat notes.

Extremely smooth mouthfeel. Clean with a slight burn, but not enough to make me guess it’s at over 9% ABV.

Overall, it’s a very solid brew.

 

 

Received from @r0rschach in a BIF box. Poured from undated can into a Spiegelau IPA glass. It pours an opaque, turbid golden-yellow with brownish hues, and almost a finger of foamy, bright white head and a thick film of lacing. It's an elegant looking pour. On the nose there is tangerine, ripe cantaloupe, onion, lemon peel, lime, grapefruit, and fragrant hops. The taste is an explosion of citrus and tropical fruits: initially there is tart - somewhat bitter - grapefruit and lemon. At mid-sip it becomes sweeter with notes of tangerine and melon. There are also hints of oats, cracker, and peppercorn at the finish. The bill of Citra, Chinook, and Idaho 7 hops provides lots of flavor along with a moderately bitter bite. This ale has a full, rich mouth feel with pleasant carbonation, and it drinks very easily considering its 9.1% ABV. Overall, You, Nature, Trees is a delicious and thoroughly enjoyable DIPA.
