If I would judge this according to the style it would not get as high of a score. A NEIPA should be tropical and not bitter. This beer is quite bitter and tropical but also a bit herbal. The aroma is heavily of weedy hops and the flavour still has a hop burn to it. Possibly a very fresh batch and the flavours might eventually become more balanced. A very interesting beer and although it's a bit all over the place I really liked it.
