Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange but somewhat bright with a stiff transparency along the sides, one and a half fingers of white foamy head dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: some pineapple, peaches, and some sweet grassy hops, light caramel malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a semi-sweet to bitter sort of way, mild finish of pineapples
Texture: light to medium bodied, somewhere between being a sipper and sessionable, clean smoothness along the tongue, restrained bitterness here
Overall: pretty nicely done NEIPA I'd return to.
