Different variation hopped with citra, Nelson, and strata hops.
Poured yellowish haze with a short white head. There is a mix of faint orange juice and lemon citrus at the nose. Taste is closely similar, dominant of orange citrus with a little 7-Up soda in the mix. Mouthfeel extremely smooth with absolutely zero hop burn. It’s a clean easy going IPA. Kind of tame, with flavors not popping out; just very approachable.

Pours a dull orange hue, with a sudsy, quarter inch, off-white head. Clarity is slightly hazy. Nose expresses citrus, pith and mango. Taste follows nose, with the addition of a biscuity malt character. Mouthfeel is light-medium in body with a lively carbonation. Overall, decent; however, it doesn’t really pop.

A: Pours a murky bright golden pale orange in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising along the edges and moderate pale orange + bright orange + apricot + peach + medium golden yellow + bright yellow colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall dense creamy sudsy foamy white head that slowly reduces to a couple of medium sized patches of thick film surrounded by a large patch of slightly mottled very thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of juicy citrus/grapefruit + citrus/lime + tropical/passionfruit + tropical/mango + stone fruit/lychee + stone fruit/peach hops over the top of just shy of moderate aromas of biscuit + pale + wheat + oat malts with light to moderate amounts of sugary sweetness.
T: Upfront there are just shy of moderate flavors of biscuit + pale + wheat + oat malts with light to moderate amounts of sugary sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of juicy citrus/grapefruit + citrus/lime + tropical/passionfruit + tropical/mango + stone fruit/lychee + stone fruit/peach hops as well as a hint of spicy + citrus/grapefruit pith hops which impart a minimal amount of bitterness which fades away quickly leaving moderate lingering citrus + tropical + stone fruit hop flavors.
M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Moderate amounts of creamy soft/fluffiness mid-body and a light amount of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a very pleasant creamy soft/fluffy mouthfeel. Enjoyable with a really nice combination of juicy citrus + tropical + stone fruit hops as well as just a touch of spicy + citrus pith hops.

a: hazy burnt copper color with some matte orange and dark yellow notes. pours a 2 finger fizzy white head that fades pretty quickly to a thin film on top with some buildups on the sides
s: huge punch of ripe mango and pineapple upfront. a big earthy note alongside some sweet citrus notes. orange juice and orange zest. crackers, guava, tangerine, and passionfruit. more earthy notes at the end with some caramel and sweet melons. nice aroma
t: follows the nose. tons of ripe mango and tangerine upfront. passionfruit and guava behind that. sweet orange juice and a hint of orange zest and grapefruit sweetness. nice pineapple note and some malt sweetness. real nice big hit of melon at the end with a bit of peach juice
m: medium mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. some definite hop burn on the back of the throat, but it works with the beer from keeping it too sweet
o: this is a really nice NEIPA. nice hop bill....sweet, earthy, and tropical
