12oz can into a pint glass. No freshness dating.
Mixed look here, body is a somewhat watery hazy yellow. Foamy white head persists throughout, and leaves fat rings of lacing. Aroma is mildly of citrus hop. On tasting, much stronger orange citrus,. This isn't usually my thing, but is quite pleasant here. Finish is short lived, and does have the feel of a coating.
Overall, an okay beer, quite flavorful. Wouldn't say no to another, but unlikely to want a third.

Poured from the can into a Spiegelau IPA glass.
Nice golden amber body, with excellent clarity showing of fine rising carbonation. Hues to brown and amber, and sitting with a nice super bright white fluffy topped three finger plus tall head. Soapy cling , and staying power with an island pucked top. Great looking IPA.
Delicious aroma, showcasing great hop quality. Citrus and an excellent sweet tangerine orange note complete with the oily zest highlighted by a touch of bitterness. Excellent touches leafy like mint as well.
Palate is just the same with great appreciating flavor. Basic but simple good supportive malt backbone, a juiced up light but firm tangerine citrus flavor with excellent zesty oil bitterness, complete with minty sweetness and a touch of green herbs. Manages to deliver exact aromatic nose impressions on the taste real nicely, providing no surprises, but also no faults either.
Just a real good solid fruity IPA working classic and new age flavors without being a sugar bomb either. Delicious.

From a can. Smells of citrus and pineapple. Medium body. Citrus and pineapple hop flavors with a floral/earthy finish. Good, but not an NEIPA which is what I expected from the name.

Note this is not a NEIPA. American IPA is much more accurate. Appearance is not such a good start. Soap Sid bubbles head that quickly disappeared. Body looks like apple juice. Aroma has some fruity notes but kinda one dimensional. Pretty tasty with a nice balance of bitter and fruity hops and not much malt presence. A little thin in body but a very slick mouthfeel. Minimal carbonation. Overall it’s a pretty decent IPA and was actually one of the better priced 6 packs in the craft beer store that I went to. I’d recommend this for someone thinking about a good budget Shelfie IPA.

clear gold (htf am I supposed to know it's juicy without the haze bro?), nice white head, great retention, rings of lace
Big fruity esters and some citrus and tropical hop aromas
Fruity like a Belgian, but lacking the spice and dryness. Kinda sweet and flabby
Medium bodied and low carbonation
Don't know what they were going for with this one. Maybe some sorta sweet spot between a saison, wcipa and neipa? Falls flat no matter what

Appearance: Cloudy, pale gold, large white head, good lacing.
Aroma: Yep, juicy all right. Didn't even need to look at the name to figure it out. I must be getting better.
Taste: Soft citrus wrapped around some tropical fruit. Herbal aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, moderately carbonated leading to a short lived finish.
Overall: Pleasant and drinkable. A step above many of the NEIPA's that I have had recently.

Gold or very pale amber in color, pretty clear for a hoppy beer. Pours a good sized white head, fairly dense and rocky and with good retention.
Nice citrusy hop aroma with some orange, mango, and pinepple. Generally a sweet and fruity nose, but a slight earthiness working in late.
Flavor generally matches the aroma, with a hit of malt up front to compliment the fruity and slightly earthy/pine hop flavors. Finish has a subtle hop bitterness, but the hops turn more earthy in the finish.
Medium body and carbonation. No astringency or warming, but the hops do coat the tongue with time.
For my palate, a nice IPA. Has some complexity in the hop aromas and flavor, and enough of an earthy bitterness to keep it from being a complete fruit bomb. Not made intentionally cloudy, which earns it bonus points from me. Definitely not 100% NEIPA.
