440ml can. Hazy, orange golden colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, slowly osteoporosing, moderately lacing, white head. Piney and tropical fruity, slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of pine needles, mango, orange, a touch of resin, honey, oaty malty background, whiffs of floral honey. Taste is resinous, piney, slightly citrusy and tropical fruity hoppy, wheaty and oaty malty basis with some residual sweetness, notes of pine needles, resin, some orange, mango, mild hoppy bitterness.
Creamy, oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously slightly dry palate, fine, dense, prickly carbonation.
Rich, intense, probably the most piney NE style IPA I had so far - very good stuff.

Pours bright hazy golden with a lasting white head. Aroma: tangerine, ripe grapefruit, orange rind and light confectionery. Taste: creamy tropical fruits, orange zest and grapefruit. Sticky and creamy palate. Nice one.
Next one, please!
