Insanely pale, hazy golden and peach coloured body that looks more like an orange juice than a beer - very nice looking, all with a two centimetre tall pure white head, but the haze is something else. Aroma of very pale and muted hops with a dash of white pepper, some hay, grass, light pine and a touch of graperuit, but some of the wheat and lighter malts are noticeable as well. Medium-bodied; Very pale and easy-going wheat flavour is noticeable at first with a good deal of light hops without any bitterness at all, showing some grasses, dry grain, a touch of herbs and finishing with a resinous and grapefruity flavour at the end, but the wheat makes things very easy, but the hops and complex characteristics are still there. Aftertaste is dry, but assertive and the wheat make this easy-to-drink, refreshing, yet the hops make this flavourful - nice in all the ways you'd want it nice, especially when the heat turns up. Overall, a very interesting and enjoyable IPA that is perfect when it's hot outside and you want a refreshing beer without sacrificing complexity or flavour - I just wish I could find this everyday, and I'd drink it a lot during the summer! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can purchased from Greenville Beer Exchange in Greenville, South Carolina on 31-May-2018 for US$3,24 sampled at home in Washington on 19-June-2018.

Quite the easy-drinkin’ NEIPA, with an opening salvo of grapefruit, green onion, peach, and berry that tapers off into a mild cracker middle and a modest earthy bitterness on the finish. Pours a uber-hazed yellow-gold with a thin white head and good lacing. Creamy, pillowy texture makes the pint disappear tout de suite. Nice beer.

Can courtesy of Salud staff, thank you gentlemen! hazy yellow color white head. Beautiful floral fruity aroma. Taste is bittersweet summer fruit, dry finish. Very tasty.
