Can from Holiday Market. Dank hops on the nose with pine, citrus and passionfruit underneath. Clean and crisp on the palate with more passion fruit with pithy white grapefruit notes. Lingering pith, citrus zest and passion fruit on the finish. Enjoyable.

Can. Pours a hazy light gold/yellow with a thin head. Aromas of grass, lemon and a bit of honey... not really picking up much tropical in the nose. Passion fruit does come through in the flavor, though... if only ephemerally... just for a second between the kind of chewy NE hops/malt blast on the front end and the resin finish on the tail end... just for a flash there in the middle, you get passion fruit. Sometimes I get a touch of it very, very late in the game too. That said, I'm pretty much a passion fruit junkie, so this doesn't really do it justice. I always want more!

Can thanks to my mom! Pours a cloudy yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has grass and passion fruit with some bitterness underlying. Flavor has earthy pineapple with some grass and a bit of citrus underlying.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 6/23/2017. Pours very hazy medium golden/yellow color with a 2 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Dense foamy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of huge passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, peach, apricot, pineapple, tangerine, lemon, citrus zest, wheat, white bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/tropical hops, passion fruit, and pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, peach, apricot, pineapple, tangerine, lemon, citrus zest, wheat, white bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very minimal pine, floral, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, peach, apricot, pineapple, tangerine, lemon, citrus zest, wheat, white bread, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/tropical hops, passion fruit, and pale malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, with zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Minimal dryness from lingering bitterness as well. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, and slightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 7%. Overall this is an outstanding NEIPA! All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/tropical hops, passion fruit, and pale malt flavors; very smooth, easy, and pretty refreshing to drink with the extremely mild bitter finish. The whole series are some of the least bitter NEIPAs I have had. Not really all that dank; but taste like pure citrus/tropical fruitiness, with a great malt backbone that is never too sweet or heavy feeling. Extra juicy feeling from the passion fruit in this version. A highly enjoyable offering.
