Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark yellow to orange haziness with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissolved at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: grapefruit, sweet Vidalia onions, papayas and mangoes; light clean malts
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fair sweet to bittersweet quality; finishes with the grapefruit and Vidalia onions with a touch of tobacco leafy tones
Texture: medium bodied, semi-sessionable; very good smoothness along the tongue; nice low carb level and low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: a very nicely done NEDIPA I would return to.

2,400th US rating! I think this may have been a stale pour from an old keg. Flat, nearly flavorless outside of a faint citrus hoppiness.

Taster pour as part of a flight at Thirsty Moose, Exeter. Agree with initial rater that name is wrong here. It's an opaque yellow with finger-width white foamy head with excellent retention and tons of soapy lacing. Aroma is really strong, juicy citrus and grapefruit. Taste follows aroma exactly. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied wit thick, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste with mild lingering bitterness. Overall, this is classic Citra and Mosaic!! Takes me back to the early days of NEIPA. Well done!

Draught at the source: pours mango, pineapple, citrus... typical NEIPA. Taste is lightly bitter, creamy but not too sweet. Light fruitiness. Mosaic is doing a lot of the work here.

Pours hazy dark mango into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes leaving scant lacing. Passion fruit and hot mango skin aromas. Dry with sweet mango and papaya upfront turning to bitter earth in the lasting finish.

16 oz. can provided by ClarkVV. Aroma shows citrus, melon, and a honey like hint. The flavor has a very juicy character with absolutely no bitterness. Large melon pulp, citrus, and a very mild herbal hints. Pretty nice brew.

Canned 5.16, drunk 5.19.18.
Heavily hazy, lemon-yellow with light peach hues about. Large white head shows moderate retention.
Tangerine, juicy peach-apricot and dainty, honey-like malts give way to a more lush, yet not heavy, tropical character showing mango and key lime. No aggressiveness whatsoever here and really preserves the levity of the base beer while just intensifying the aromatics and overall hop denseness. No alcohol or flaw.
Soft, juicy, malty and full of apricot, strawberry, pineapple, mango and bright, yet not bitter citrus. Soft honey from the malt alongside tight carbonation creates a supple texture and attenuation is high. Light biscuit, a pinch of pine and grapefruit lend just enough balancing dryness/bitterness while bright yellow fruits linger on. Incredible stuff, obviously having taken great care in brewing it, and living up to the hype and then some.

Hackney Bottleshare. Big thanks to Leighton for the can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and finely crisp. Light malts still bring a good level of creamy sweetness. Good strong piney hop, cooling. Good hop spice. Citrus and tropical fruits in good balance. Light crisp finish. Very light and clean this one. Delightful.
