Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, elderflower, alcohol,vanilla, floral, mango and bubblegum. Taste is heavy sweet and light to medium bitter with a long warm, elderflower, vanilla, floral, mango and bubblegum finish. Body is full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Hazy yellow colour with no head. Aroma and flavour have loads of vanilla ice cream. Also some background tropical fruit hop notes.

Can. So this beer has vanilla but it’s not a Milkshake IPA. There is no mention of NE yeast or the brewer calling this an NE DIPA. But here it is, a NE DIPA. A perfect example of the shitshow that is Ratebeer hoppy styles. Ill defined. Ill thought out. Not really adminned for the aforementioned reasons. Lightly hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light smooth malts, a nice light creamy sweetness, mild and well integrated vanilla. Sweet floral citrus, nice light Elderflower. Nice light sweet tropical fruits. Tinned tropical fruits. Light finish. Nice, very drinkable.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 6/2019. Pours very hazy deep golden amber color with a 1 finger dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, strawberry, elderflower, wood, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, marshmallow, vanilla, cream, wheat, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, elderflower, marshmallow, vanilla, and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, strawberry, elderflower, wood, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, marshmallow, vanilla, cream, wheat, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light pine, citrus peel/zest, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, red apple, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, strawberry, elderflower, wood, citrus peel/zest, light peppercorn/pine, marshmallow, vanilla, cream, wheat, white bread dough, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, elderflower, marshmallow, vanilla, and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent hop/elderflower flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy, and fairly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Slight lingering resins through the glass. Zero warming alcohol for 8.6%. Overall this is an awesome flavored milkshake NEIPA. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, elderflower, marshmallow, vanilla, and bready malt flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to drink for the big ABV, with the mildly bitter/drying finish; great soft feel. Feels like Citra/Mosaic hops as with most of their beers. Awesome balance of juicy, light dank/earthy hops with elderflower, vanilla, and marshmallow flavors; with a great wheat/oat/malt backbone. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A really enjoyable offering, and impressive style example as expected. Not as impressive as most of their other NEIPAs, but still delicious.
