Can from day 17 of the Beer Republic Green advent calendar. Packaged Aug 4. Hazy amber, nice lasting head. Nose is citrusy, it's a bit sour smelling. Yep from the flavor this is definitely mildly sour, which can only be contamination in this style. Not much hop aroma, flavor a bit citrusy, interesting enough I'll still drink it but that's a bummer as this was one of the newer beers in the calendar. Can't rate it too well with this major failure though.

355ml can from Stop & Shop, Quincy. Quaffled at our hotel in North Quincy. Hazed golden orange appearance, white head. Curious fruitiness at play here.. a little smoky, stonefruity, orangey.. interesting IPA nonetheless.

Pours hazy amber with a thin white head. Aroma of guava and resinous fruit. Taste is lightly resinous with citrus notes. Palate has light hop notes as well as tropical fruit, pineapple and guava. Weird NEIPA.

Pours a somewhat cloudy dark amber from a can. Tropical and stone fruit aromas with a bit of pine. Flavor is actually rather peppery, with more stone fruit. Good beer.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Andover Liquors. Appearance is cloudy yellow/orange/brown (like a light cider) with 2-finger width off white foamy head with fair retention and trace sudsy lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruits, citrus. Taste is tropical fruit, dank resiny bitterness. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, soft-to-average carbonation and dry, bitter finish. Overall, sweetness of the aroma does not fully carry over to the taste with bitter balance that is more than I'd prefer.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. White head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Pineapple and mango aromas. Soft with sweet caramel and passionfruit upfront turning to pith in the lasting finish.
