IPA brewed with Pilsner malt, white wheat malt, raw wheat, and flaked oats, hopped in the kettle with Citra, Azacca, and Simcoe, then dry-hopped again with the same suspects. This beer is creamy, juicy, and dank. We're tasting a tropical fruit salad topped with gummy peach rings, orange starburst, and scoops of melty sherbert.

Traditional style IPA with a little more hazy look. Has a lighter flavor not too sweet or sour with no bitter aftertaste. Quite nice and refreshing.

Lush Yield - unfiltered India Pale Ale.
I guess that's another way of saying NEIPA but for me, this one is a cut above.
The color is deep orange-amber with a tall white head of sticky foam. The slump leaves behind spatters of lace and islands of clotted foam.
Aromas of both rich malt and hop terpenes flood the nose. candy sugar, caramel coated tangerines and distinct spruce and pine notes blend beautifully, welcoming with open arms.
The flavor is equally balanced and complex. No "softness" or strange oat starchy, milk sugary pseudo body but genuine, unfiltered protein and residual malt sugars. Lush mouthfeel and tasty blend of citrus and pear flavors wrapped in a malted candy coating.
This is as close to the Heady Topper I first had at the brewery 15 or more years ago.
Great flavor hop presence and subdued bitterness that both compliment rather than over shadow the rich and tasty wheat and malt character.
The finish is surprisingly clean, a mild toffee and herbal hop after taste lingers.

16oz can poured into an ipa glass results in a one finger off white creamy foam over a hazy orange liquid, good retention, clingy lacings, reduces to a solid layer
Aroma us orange citrus, peach, tropical fruit
Taste is peach , orange, hint if tropical fruits, hint of dank in the finish
Good sudsing , gentle hop nibble on the finish
Good beer
