Can pour into nonic pint glass from the brewery. Appearance is opaque, dark orange/light brown with nice sparkle at the edges of the glass, 2-finger width foamy off-white head with decent retention and mild soapy lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, milder grapefruit and citrus. Taste is tangy orange citrus, milder tropical fruit, very slight grapefruit and herb, late bitter. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin, frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation, mild numbing of the lips and mostly sweet finish but lingering mild bitterness. Overall, certainly the look of a NEIPA but the palate is too thin and a bit too carbonated. Aroma and taste of decent strength but not super complex and doesn't work as well as some of their others.

Burk från Tree House. Tjockt disig mörkgul med snygg, fluffig två fingrar hög skumpuck. Doft och smak av solmogen persika och aprikos, Solero-glass, aprikoskärnor, en mix av citrusfrukter och en liten ton av papaya. Juicig med riktigt fruktiga humletoner. Mjuk kropp, kanske något lättare storleksmässigt. Mycket gott!

440ml can from a trade. Canned 11/06/18. Smooth, juicy fruity and hoppy with some pine, citrus and tropical notes. Quite juicy and not that bitter, but pretty balanced still.

Can (one off) from De Bierkoning. About 2.5 weeks old. Murky deep golden color. White-ish head, more that usual with a NEIPA, but retention is not too long. Aroma's: dank hops, tropical fruit, resin. Retronasal it's dank (gets more dank and juicy with every sip), weed, resinous, a bit citrussy, onoin. Flavor is light moderate bitter with light fruity sourness and lots of hops. Medium bodied. Mild hopburn. Moderate bitter finish.

1 pint can, canned Aug 1st 2018. Shared by Sander, many thanks!
Amber, hazy body, with a medium, creamy, yellowish head.
Aroma of green hops, citrus, wet grass, dankness, fruit juice, slight peppery notes.
Tastes pretty similar, also very green.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes dry, moderate bitter, citric, zesty, a bit piney, grassy, a bit yeasty.
Tasty. Tastes very "green" throughout, the juicy fruits are more in the background. Drinks crisp and fresh, with just enough malt body. Maybe not as outstanding as expected, but still a really lovely, characterful IPA.
Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 16

Pours hazy deep gold into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes leaving scant sheets. Mango and papaya aromas. Soft with pineapple and mango upfront turning to mild tangerine in the lasting finish.
08/01/18 canning, started drinking this while writing my review annnnd now its gone, damn easy drinking orange citrus juice, smooth end to end and still packing flavor, got bit of a pils note too must be the Amarillo dry hop?
