Can. Pours a fairly clean gold (just a hint of haze, which has me a little confused about the NE thing, but happy that there isn't all that floating yeast). Aromas are a yummy mix of cantaloupe, papaya and pineapple, while flavor has a distinct grain presence that reminds me of the dust in grain silos. Finish is flabby and has a bit of melon, but the nose is definitely the strong suit on this particular beer. Disappointing after a strong start.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 7/17/2018. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy medium golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn ice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit dough, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn ice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops. Very mild pine, zesty, herbal, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berries, citrus peel/zest, light pepper/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 solid 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, creamy/bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 7.2%. 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. Awesome soft feel. Feels like Mosaic, Galaxy, Amarillo. Super juicy and lightly dank hops; perfect wheat/oat/malt balance, mild lingering sweetness. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Even with the lack of much haze, they nailed it.

Sample at Daily Growler UA. Clear orange color with a medium frothy bone white head that recedes gradually to a film. Sticky small patches of lace. Tropical fruit, herbal hops and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of grapefruit, resiny hops and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Decent overall.
