Big, juicy flavor and a pleasant bitterness are the modus operandi of this beer. Citra and Manderina Bavaria hops make this a smooth drinking, but powerful experience. No need to ask, he’s a smooth operator.

7.9/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Reviewed from notes.
On tap at Frost.
Appearance: semi-bright yet burnt yellow-ish orange color with a quickly dissipating frothy head which barely left any lace
Aroma: orangey to grapefruity to piney sweet hoppy character with a clean malt base
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine juicy sweet quality; finishes semi-crisp with a light grapefruity sweet edge to it
Texture: light to medium bodied; good sessionability; great smoothness along with a good low carb; and low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: pretty nicely done NEDIPA I would return to.
