Can to tulip.
Appearance: orange chalky thick coloring with a finger and a quarter's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some mellow lace
Aroma: lemon zesty & pineapple-y hoppy tones up front with a light malt base
Flavor: blends the prior mentioned aromas together bittersweetly; mild aftertaste of lemon zestiness, pine and peaches
Texture: medium bodied, surely a sipper; light hop abrasion but nothing overbearing; finishes with the lemon zesty and pineapple-y tones of the hops
Overall: a very nicely done NEIPA I would love to come back to.

16 oz can from Joe Canal's, 12/1/19. Lightly hazed golden-orange. White head, moderate lace. Melon, caramel, and dough, as well as slightly buttery. Some light earth notes. Decent mouthfeel. Taste works better than the aroma, but it's only okay overall for me.

Can, from Beer Run. Pours extremely hazy rich yellow with very small frothy whitish head, good lacing, mango-pineapple aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter mango-pineapple-citrus taste, somewhat thick body, long finish. Juicy and satisfying.

The Aromas are on the mild side of hops and pale malt. Flavors are stronger, with this putrid sweetness up front and an odd bitterness following. Decent carbonation full body and an okay finish.

Pours a lightly hazy, bright lemon yellow, with mid-sized, lasting head. Aroma is grassy, with some dank, sour washcloth. Tropical and citrus fruit notes. Flavor is grassy, bitter, hoppy. Some citrus elements. Soft mouthfeel. Alcohol content is pretty well-hidden.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 8/2019. Pours very hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 1-2 finger fairl dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big blood orange, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, mango, honeydew melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/zest, wood, black peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big blood orange, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, mango, honeydew melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/zest, wood, black peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of blood orange, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, mango, honeydew melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, black peppercorn, pine, wheat, biscuit dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, fairly sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 8.6%. Overall this is an awesome NEDIPA. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/fairly earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to drink for the ABV, with the mellowly bitter/resinous/drying finish; awesomely soft feel. Awesome Pacific Jade showcase. Very juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops; with a perfectly balanced wheat/oat/malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A really enjoyable offering, and impressive spot on style example as expected.
