Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and light tropical notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes, some tropical notes and a semi-dry finish. Body is full and creamy for style with good carbonation. Interesting double NEIPA with nice citrusy features without being overly sweet.

I haven't had a Badlands October DIPA since 2020. I loved that one.
This one pours quite pale with a thick head. The nose is mostly citrus with a slight hint of smoke. After a while, there is some apricot seed as well but it's very light.
This is nothing like 4 years ago. Gone are the earthy tones and hello tartness, courtesy of Motueka, which I didn't even have to look up. Nearly every IPA is now tainted with some New Zealand hop - a very unfortunate residue of Covid times. I am hoping that they will eventually disappear, but I'm not holding my breath.
It's drinkable fare but the tartness taketh away. Again.
Down with New Zealand hops.
