Fresh Hop NEIPA featuring 100% Strata hops. This hazy IPA offers complex & intense aromas of juicy grapefruit, & dank cannabis. Flavors of tropical fruit & fresh red berries dominate the palate with underlying nuance of citrus on a soft, pillowy body. Pungent hop dankness, & grapefruit pith bitterness emerge on the long, drying finish with hints of chili pepper & resin supporting.

16oz can (canned 9/21/2020) into a tulip. Pours a cloudy lemon yellow with a 1-finger head.

Aroma is big juicy orange and grapefruit. Pulpy, bright and clean. I'm liking these Strata hops.

Taste leads off with strong orange, with some more tropical flavors mixed in. Mango maybe, a touch of melon, and a subtle note of grassiness. Lively sharp acidity washes across the palate on the finish.

Mouthfeel is balanced, medium body. Right for the style. Goes down easy.

Overall a tasty, refreshing fresh hop beer from a brewery I'm not sure I'd even heard of prior to today.
