I am trying this beer off the tapper at the brewery as part of a four sample flight. It poured a smoothie hazy orangish with very little head that did not leave any lace. The scent had citrus and bittering hop notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with crisp semi sweet malt base with citrus, hints of pine and bold finish hop presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Poured from 16oz tall can into my Bell's tulip. Canned 3/22/22; purchased at brewery. This version is listed at 7%.

Appearance: dark yellow hue with lots of murky haze and a thick finger of creamy ivory foam. This definitely delivers on the "hazy" promise.

Smell: some dankness, some grapefruit, a little bit of tropical fruit character. Not exactly juicy, but quite hoppy indeed. I like it.

Taste: earthy, a bit dank, and a bit citrus-rindey. It's perhaps a bit rough around the edges for a New England IPA, with kind of a raspy bitterness present. Certainly not bad, but not my favorite NEIPA.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent level of carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: it's decent, but overall it does not blow me away.

Solid IPA. Cloudy and opaque. Vague lemony hop flavor. In fact, a slight “green” vegetative flavor. But not bad. Subtle. But heavily hopped, but not sticky.
