12 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours very hazy medium golden yellow color with a 2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, apricot, melon, pear, lemon/orange zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity hops and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, apricot, melon, pear, lemon/orange zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine/grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, apricot, melon, pear, lemon/orange zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity hops and bready malt flavors; with awesome malt/bitterness balance, and 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 lightly sticky balanced mouthfeel that is awesome. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 7%. Overall this is an excellent NEIPA! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth, easy, and pretty refreshing to drink with the extremely mild bitter finish. One of the least bitter and most juicy tasting NEIPAs I have had, as with the regular. Not really all that dank; but tastes like pure fruit juice, with a great malt backbone. Never too sweet or heavy feeling. Very similar to the regular, but more citrus heavy from the Amarillo hops. A really enjoyable offering.
