Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: burnt orange haziness with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange to lime hop scents; some piney hops in the middle then some apricot-like hops under the piney hops; light sweet cracker malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet juicy quality; finishes piney to apricot-like with orangey hop notes
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; some smoothness but also some light hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: pretty nicely done NEIPA I would return to.

Can at work on corona lock down day. A hazed deep orange coloured pour with loads of yeast floaters, reluctant off white head. Aroma is semi sweet, orange mango, apricot . Flavour is composed of flabby grains, spicy citrus, mango, bitty. Some stalking grains. Palate is flabby, bitty, highish carbonation, spicy finish. Not good.

Appearance- cloudy golden, lots of bubbles rising, a pillowy 2-3 finger cream head. Gets soupy when the sediment comes out. Aroma- pineapple, citrus fruit, hops, trace of wheaty malt. Taste- bitter hops, pineapple, peach, juicy fruit, cereal malt underneath. Juicy hoppy finish, a bit of clingy bitterness.

Can via BrewDog. It pours cloudy dirty gold with a foamy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, bready malts, ripe stone fruits, juicy peach, apricot, persimmon, melon and sponge cake. The taste is dry, bitter- sweet, green, wet grass, sponge cake, pithy citrus, peppery spice, ripe apricot, peach and persimmon. Finish is dry with a nip of alcohol. Medium body and fine carbonation. I would maybe prefer it less sweet, but its not bad overall.

Frothy white head left flotsam on a very hazy, highly effervescent vivid golden body. Pineapple, mango, kiwi & Tropical fruit aroma. Medium to thin bodied, tingly on the tongue with a short clean back. Sweet peach, mango, pineapple, melon, sweet citrus & hop busting tastes.
