Brewed with Oasis Farms grown Ekuanot®, Talus®, Mosaic® & Cashmere, This collaboration focuses on the terroir from Oasis Farms Hops, part of the YCH Grower Ownership. We are proud to work with Oasis Farms and have selected their crops during blind sensory analysis. This beer highlights the uniquely bright citrus, deep berry, and effervescent tropical notes that their soil provides our Ekuanot® hops. Ekuanot® hop cones burst out of the spring soil a vibrant yellow and then mature to a deep green by fall harvest.

Slight finger's worth of off white head... Modest retention... Color is a moderately hazed orangish gold... Big tropical fruit nose highlighted by mango and fresh orange... Flavor profile matches the nose with a nice bitter finish... On the fuller side of medium bodied... Lush and chewy... Velvety mouthfeel... Outstanding brew... I love a lot of what new trail does, but this one is ami gay their best...

Mouthfeel is above average, not sticky or dry, soft gentle carbonation, and at 9.1% it goes down very easy. 4.5
Overall I always dig when @jzeilinger sends me this brewery, always above average and sometimes excellent. Thanks Jeff. Cheers all. 4.25

Undated (WTF) can into pint glass. Pours a hazy honey-gold color with a brief off-white head. Decent lacing. Initial impression is lemon, orange, lime, berry, and grapefruit rind. Mouthfeel is fairly soft, yet clean and refreshing. Finish has a bit of spice to it. Overall, an enjoyable DIPA that I'd actually consider more of a traditional DIPA with NEIPA characteristics. Whatever - it's pretty good.

A - Opaque medium gold with a frothy layer of white foam resting on top. The foam sticks to the sides of the glass like glue.
S - Big bright citrus aroma, grapefruit, a small amount of berry, and lime aroma.
T - Grapefruit, pine, a little bit of berry (on the back side), some lime, pineapple, and melon, while finishing with a nice pine finish with a slight bit of lingering lime, pineapple, and melon underneath.
M - Big medium body that coats the mouth with a healthy layer of hops creating a cotton-like sensation in the mouth and a very dry finish.
O - Very solid and worth checking out.
