Hazy without a head. There's definitely some maple syrup, a little bit of vanilla. It's got a lot of alcohol, again the maple, mellow pale malts. Light bitterness. Not bad, though I'm not sure there's any bacon character. I think this is vegan friendly.

Sweet bready notes. Cloudy gold with a small white head. Sweet, bready light black pepper with a touch of savoury notes. Weird, but ok I guess.

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours very hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and cream off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a large cap that lasts. Thick foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/zest, maple syrup, vanilla, cream, brown sugar, honey, caramel, and biscuit dough; with light notes of bacon smoke, cinnamon, pepper, pine, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, maple syrup, sugars, and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/zest, maple syrup, vanilla, cream, brown sugar, honey, caramel, and biscuit dough; with light notes of bacon smoke, cinnamon, pepper, pine, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/zest, maple syrup, vanilla, cream, brown sugar, honey, caramel, biscuit dough, light cinnamon/pepper/pine, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, maple syrup, sugars, and bready malt flavors; with a with a solid malt/sugar/bitterness balance; and no cloying flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 8.4%. Overall this is a fantastic flavored NEIPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, maple syrup, and bready malt flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to drink for the ABV, with the mildly bitter/drying finish; great soft feel. Fantastic Citra profile. Extremely juicy and lightly dank/earthy hops; with perfect balance of maple syrup, sugars, and oat/malts. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and amazing base style example as expected. Just as impressive as the base beer, but not as much actual bacon flavors as I hoped for.

16 oz. can, split with Timmy. Pours a hazy, light, orange color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is orange juice, maple, light smoke, caramel, and toffee. Very sweet and syrupy. Medium body, with a slick, and creamy mouthfeel. This is an interesting and fun beer.

16 oz can from Tavour. Hazy pour, orange- golden, small bubbly ring. Aroma is a hodgepodge of scents: maple, vanilla, citrus. Taste focuses on the French Toast, minor smoky flavors represent the bacon. The touch of citrus adds a glass of orange juice to your breakfast plate. Pretty subtle flavors throughout.

16 oz. Aroma is bacon, black pepper, maple, bready. Pours hazy golden with a one finger cream-white head with decent retention. Taste is sweet with faint bitterness; flavors of bacon and maple covered French Toast, as described. Alcohol is completely hidden. Perfect creamy mouthfeel. This is amazeballs delicious.
