Canned on 2/24/22; consumed on 3/24/22
Pours an opaque, dirty dishwater-brown (a theme I've noticed with Tox IPAs) capped with multiple fingers of dense, fluffy, white foam; great head retention yields a rocky half-finger of cap, large, frothy collar, and layers of dense, webby lacing caked comprehensively across the walls of the glass.
Aroma opens to lush melon sorbet accented with pink Starburst as shreds of mango peel appear over the middle, meeting a tinge of catty hops and bready malt into the back end of the bouquet, where tangerine and orange accent the close.
Taste shows tangerine juice vibrant upfront and paired with an accentuating lime peel, peaking to a sweeter mango sorbet over the mid-palate as papaya and slight dank grapefruit fade into the back end and an edge of catty dank grazes the finish.
Mouthfeel brings a medium body with rounded, moderate carbonation dispersing a creamy texture underscored by lighter hoppy grit through the mid-palate; fluffy accents progress to a bright twang into the back end, easing to a silky finish.
Trends of oxidation betray a contrastingly vibrant profile, layered into expressively seeet tropical characteristics leveled with distant earthy resins and encapsulated fully in an effortless, velvety form; save for some glaring inconsistencies, this presents as an upper-tier NEIPA.
