Undated (WTF) can into pint glass. Pours a murky honey-gold with a nice off-white head. Good lacing. Initial impression is orange, lime, caramel, and maybe a touch of grapefruit. Mouthfeel is soft and carbonation is moderate. Finish is somewhat sweet, but definitely not cloying. Overall, another excellent NEIPA from New Trail!

Poured from a 16 oz can into a Dogfish Head tulip

L: Hazed light golden pour with 2 fingers of foamy white head. Great retention/lacing.

S: Fruit and citrus. Hops, grains, and honey.

T.F: Just like it smells. Honey and light grains.. citrus and tropical hops. Orange, lime, and rind... a bit of pineapple and tropicals plus a little pine. Juicy and fairly light. Creamy mouthfeel and well carbonated.

O: Definitely a hazy New Trail IPA. Good flavor/drinkability... and the lighter ABV goes down easy.

Poured into a grip shaped goblet: color is thick, murky, hazy straw, head is brighter white with fine bubbles, head presents 1 finger then dissipates to a ring on the glass sides, lacing and froth on sides of glass.

Smell is mixed tropicals, maybe some citrus pith, light oat/wheat note.

Taste is similar subdued, really kind of muddled grain/hops: tropicals, citrus pith, light berry, grain sweetness and thickness from oats/wheat.

Mouthfeel is very flat, thick sweetness, low bitterness.

Overall a flat, muddled HIPA with thick feel and limited hop/grain aroma/flavor.
