Can from Brewcraft at home during quarantine. Orange-golden hazy pour with thin fizzy white head. Looks good. Aroma is mango, sweet orange citrus juice, some zest, a little light papery malt. Aroma is similar with bitter citrus up front, less juicy than expected, and drier finish. Medium light palate. Quite good!

Lime and some grapefruit. Kind of a mash tang type flavor overall. Pours golden with ok head. Hop tang finish. Wouldn't drink again.

Can pour from Greg & Jane's Beer and Wine. Appearance is cloudy with a number of dark floaties, yellow-light brown, trace sparkle, thin cap of white head with poor retention. Aroma is strong sharp tangerine, mild mango and coconut. Taste is dominant sweet tangerine with mango on the back end including vague metallic hints with slight lemony citrus and pine. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with mild bitter offset. Overall, this is along the style--checks the right boxes, but look is a little gnarly

12 ounce can. Hazy yellow gold pour. Moderate rocky beige head. Subtle citrus notes upfront. Faint citrus hops wither touch of biscuit malt. Hints of lemon zest, passion fruit and unripe pineapple. A bit of white pepper and aspirin in middle. Brief dry lemony finish.

On the bland side for an NEIPA; nothing wrong with the beer, just lacking much pop in a style that demands big punches of juicy flavor. Moderate notes of citrus zest, pineapple, and berry, with a earthy straw note in the middle and a mild mineral bitterness on the finish. Eh.

Pours a hazy dark straw from a tap. Lemon aroma adds some grass to the flavor, starts off a little sweet but ends dry. Pretty good beer.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Tropical fruit driven nose with pithy citrus, mango and coconut aromas that dominate. Smooth on the palate with some pine and pith bitterness. As it warms more mango and coconut linger towards the finish.
