Reviewed from notes.
On tap at Big Fatty's (yes, across the parking lot from the brewery).
Appearance is shown in the picture.
Aroma: big smooth orange juicy notes, lemon and grapefruity hop scents, light rind bitterness, light clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet juicy quality; mild finish of orange juice, lemon and grapefruity hops
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper, some smoothness on the tongue, low hop bitterness
Overall: a very nicely done NEIPA I could have again

Can at home in Canaan. Picked up from the brewery. Pours mostly clear, yellow-gold with a creamy, white topping. Medium sweet flavour, nice and dank, weedy, some onion, melon, tangerine, lemon rind. Medium bodied with massaging carbonation. Slight resin in the finish, a little pale bread, more dank hops, citrus accents. Nice one overall.

Can from Todd, thanks for the trade. Hazy lemony yellow with a decent sized bubbly white head that slowly dissipates. Lemony orange and tropical fruitiness with hints of grass earth and pine. Light/faint bready malt to counter. Pretty nice IPA

Milkshake orange. Off white head. Smells like grapefruit rind. Very acidic citrus. Decent mouthfeel. Juicy. Rich. Grapefruit. Acidic and lingering dry rind finish
