Tasting at Brian's, can
Murky pale blond colour. Powerful aroma of lemon peel. Smooth, dry, too chalky, with good lemon peel hoppong, and some citrus peel bitterness in the final.
Good.

Cloudy and yellow. Not much head. On the nose, this has a lot of weed, but also maybe a touch of gooseberry. There's a fair bit of bitterness, but also that harsh lupy powder character. And the finish is thin. But the hop aroma and flavour are assertive and decent. Not super complex, but decent.

Tall can (thx, Connor G.!) at Brian's. Pours a cloudy blonde with a white head. Aroma is bitter tropical fruits. Taste is similar with dusty notes. Quite good.

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but was just released. Pours very hazy deep golden amber color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky off white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big mandarin orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berries, white grape/wine, citrus peel/zest, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big mandarin orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berries, white grape/wine, citrus peel/zest, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Mild pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, grassy, woody, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of mandarin orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berries, white grape/wine, citrus peel/zest, wood, light peppercorn/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/silky/grainy/bready, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 6.5%. Overall this is an excellent NEIPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mildly bitter/drying finish, great soft feel. Awesome Mosaic, Hallertau Blanc profile. Very juicy and lightly dank/earthy hops; great wheat/malt balance; mild residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example as expected.
