Tap, and can from the source. Hazy yellow pour, with a large white head. Big floral citrus, and juicy tropical fruit notes. Carb and mouth feel are lively, and effervescent. Finish is low to medium bitter with the obvious juicy, zest citrus, and tropical fruit flavours. Typical NEIPA, well done, easy drinking, and incredibly flavorful.

This might be my first can from this brewery, as they normally come in these nice dark bottles. Pours a hazy golden-amber colour with some particles running through it. The head is big, frothy, bubbly, creamy, warm off-white coloured with good retention and lacing. Some tropical fruits in the aromas with the citrus notes, honey and mild sweet malts. The taste is just above average bitter with some oranges, and its peel lingering a little. Not super juicy and with a dry finish, not really a NEIPA, but a very good IPA all-around.

Amber, with a slight haze. Just a very thin head. This has more of a C-hop spicy nose, maybe a bit cheesy.

473mL can, pours a hazy golden with a smal white head. Aroma brings out grapefruit, citrus hops, and stone fruit. Flavour is fairly tangy, with citrus hops, some pithy stone fruit, and some yeast. This is anything but a NE IPA, lots of old school, earthy notes. Not very on-point.

Can from RCSS. Murky orange amber with a small off white head that recedes quickly to a sheet leaving tight lace. Nose is tropical fruit, citrus, grass, bread and light peach.Flavour is more subdued than the nose with a light sweet base for a medium- grapefruit and grass bitterness. Mouth is medium slick with average carbonation. 7/4-/7-/3+/14
