Had this beer at the Islip, NY airport.
Poured from draft into a shaker pint glass. Bright hazy yellow with a thin head and decent lacing. Grapefruit and orange smell and taste. Flavors a bit muddled. Feel is not what is expected of the style. Meh.

12oz can.
L: Hazy, pale orange colour with two fingers of loose head that collapses quickly to a smear.
S: Light orange juice aroma.
T: Pithy orange, lemon and mango.
F: Soft mouthfeel, a spritz of carbonation and a dry-ish finish.
O: An okay, not remarkable, NEIPA. Would be good if session strength but expect more for 6.5%.

Straw yellow color with a small white head. Nose is citrus, some pineapple, maybe some mango. The taste is rather subdued but I'm getting hops, tropical fruit, and a little bit of pineapple. Light to medium mouthfeel and some bitterness on the finish. There is no detection of alcohol. A middle-of-the-road IPA.

12 oz can, with "BB 05 January 2023" stamped on the bottom.
Full on hazed n juiced pour, leaves a 1/4 inch cap that goes to a thicker film. Also shows delicate low sheeting resting on the glass.
Sniff is of some assorted fruits and then chives and light scallions.
Tasty NEIPA, with usual ripe tropical fruits qualities, and finishes with again a chived up quality....complex and easy drinking...well worth giving this every day kinda brew a try

just too many hazys out there, just found this one to be in mid of pack. Standard hazy taste, perhaps a bit tamer than most. Try this but head back to Blue Points solid toasted lager...yum.

Cool 12 oz can. Very tasty hazy ipa with great citrus scent when opening can. Taste is juicy with great mouth feel. Easy to drink. It has been a while since I had a beer from this brewer but had to try when I saw the new can and packaging. Can dated best by 4/21/21 so I think it’s pretty fresh.
