Aromas are semi fresh resin hops with a little body sweat and cabbage. Flavors are like nose Bittersweet with good carbonation and body. Decent beer.

Can, from Malt @ Mold. Pours juicy bright yellow with foamy white head, sharp orange aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter orangey taste with alcohol undertones, bit of mango flavor, somewhat thick body, long juciy finish. Good brew.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 8/20/2018. Pours opaquely hazy golden/amber/greenish color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, lime, peach, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, lime, peach, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, lime, peach, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and minimal lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Minimal warming alcohol for 8.7%. Overall this is an excellent NEDIPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV, with the moderately bitter/resinous/drying finish, not too aggressive. Not as soft as I was hoping, vs their other DIPAs. Great juicy, dank, and earthy balanced Citra/citrus peel complexity; nice wheat/oat/malt backbone, minimal residual sweetness from lingering dryness. A very enjoyable offering otherwise.
