Can from City Beer: pours hazy with white head. Aroma is dank, fruity, citrus, herbs. Taste is sort of malty. Dank hoppiness. Not bad.

Pretty good hazy PA. Ticks all the boxes. Satisfying and I would get another one.

Pours a hazy, lemon-pineapple color, with minimal head. Aroma has a sharp note of green onion/sharp cheese, along with citrus and some grass. Flavor is intensely bitter, with citrus, grass, hops, some tropical fruit. Mouthfeel is more crisp than soft.

Got in a trade with GreenBayBA. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours opaquely hazy medium golden amber color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew, watermelon, berries, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, cracker, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew, watermelon, berries, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, cracker, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew, watermelon, berries, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, cracker, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Slight increasing hop burn after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic NEAPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the modestly bitter/resinous/drying finish. Nicely soft feel, and not aggressive. Fantastic Azacca, El Dorado, Idaho 7 profile. Extremely juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops; with a great clean oat/malt backbone. Mild residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and well made style example.

Can thanks to Kyle! Pours a hazy light yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has lots of grass and earthy citrus with a bit of orange rind and light sweet grain underlying. Flavor has earthy citrus and light citrus rind with grass and a bit of grain backing.
