[IMG] Poured into a 20 oz tulip glass canned on 10/25/22. Pours a very attractive hazy orange yellow with a solid 2 finger sticky white head that leaves loads of lace with nice retention. 4.5
Aroma is passionfruit, peach, mandarin, and apricot. 4.25
Taste passionfruit, peach, mandarin, and apricot. 4.25
Mouthfeel is above average, not sticky or dry, gentle carbonation, and at 7.6 % it drinks bigger but goes down very easy. 4.25
Overall this is very nice, not dazzled but thoroughly enjoying. 4.25

16oz can with illegible date code.
Pours cloudy yellow with an inch-plus of white foam. Plenty of tattered lacing and persistent retention. Mildly hoppy in the nose with peach, orange, melon. Medium bodied with a soft fluffy mouthfeel. Orange and peach on the palate with minimal malt or bitterness. Finishes juicy and ripe.

Vitamin Sea Due North is a wonderful NEIPA. I don't have the vocabulary to get into it...you guys that love this style know what you are looking for! I know what I'm looking for! Just give me what I want! This gives me what I want!
It looks beautiful, smells like an average hazy IPA...but the mouthfeel and taste is top notch. Silky, creamy mouthfeel...the taste is that perfect blend of bitter and citrus you're looking for. They don't get too much better. World class / Tree House category NEIPA.

16oz can from Half Time. Hazy golden pour, one finger fluffy white head. Light citrusy aroma, milky notes. Taste brings zesty, fruity flavors, orange, mango. Pretty mellow all around, but the zippy bitterness, while light, sticks around on the palate

08.12.21 on bottom of can. Poured into a Samuel Adams Perfect Pint.
A: Moderately hazy pineapple gold with 2-finger off-white frothy head with good retention and solid lacing.
S: Lime, orange, tangerine, pineapple, guava with a light caramel malt note in the background.
T: Stellar flavor with pineapple, lime, tangerine, candied orange, passion fruit with a slightly sweet light caramel note in the finish and aftertaste. Medium bitterness at most, low esters, alcohol well-hidden. Delicious.
M: Very creamy with medium body with low carbonation, super drinkable.
O: A wonderful beer from Vitamin Sea, really excellently executed with a touch of East Coast IPA caramel aroma and flavor for some added flair.

Pours a very hazy pineapple color with a foamy white head that beautifully laces the glass. The Galaxy/Mosaic hop combo practically has me drooling, and the nose doesn’t disappoint, with dank passion fruit, juicy pineapple, and ripe tangerine aromas.
The passion fruit flavor is forward, an exotic flavor that works perfectly with the pineapple, tangerine, and creamy oat flavors that follow. This is delicious, IMHO.
The mouthfeel is softer per the style. Vitamin Sea is a legitimate player in the juicy NEIPA style.
