Very hazy, light golden color. Frothy white head. Stonefruit, mango with nice biscuity malt backbone. Very well integrated between hop and malt. Modestly bitter. This beer is about four months old, so hops have faded a lot, but great mouth feel. Lingering white grapefruit in the finish. Very nice

Can from a trade poured into a taster showing hazy whitish yellow with half a finger of clean white foam. The nose shows dank and pungent cannabis. The palate is medium bodied with moderate to full carbonation but smooth. Strong flavors of dank cannabis with hints of pineapple and a light malt sweetness throughout. Light but sharp IPA bitterness on the finish. Very well done NE style IPA from the west coast.

Can from Sean, five days old. Thanks for sharing! It pours a sunburst yellow color with a white head. The aroma has some canteloupe, watermelon, honeydew and grapefruit. The flavor has a lot of the same. Melon, citrus grapefruit wtih super low bitterness and a creamy mouthfeel. Like a melon smoothie only with a fresh hop kick. Awesome stuff.

Poured from a 16 oz can. Aroma is very hop forward with lots of tropical fruit juice notes, some citrus, hints of dank resin. Some pineapple, peach an outer stone fruit. Medium light cracker malt notes and a bit of wheat. Pours a very hazy, murky, pale golden straw color with a medium large, thick, white head that recedes steadily to a thin film that lingers for a bit. Medium lacing and small legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with medium light cracker malt notes an a bit of wheat. Medium high bitterness with a faint alcohol note. Lots of hop flavors with citrus, tropical fruit and stone fruit. A light dank, resinous note. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a very nice NE IPA. Lots of hop aromas and flavors. Nice to see someone canning these in Northern California.

750 ml growler. Thanks, snuffy. The beer is a glowy yellow-tannish orange color. It’s completely clouded through and looks heavy with unfiltered goodness. Smallish white head, a bit soapy, but it is a growler pour. The aroma is wonderfully juicy, full of fruity hop flavor. Big tropical flavor with sweet stone fruit and citrus. Pineapple, peach, tangerine, melon, kiwi, lime. Really, really nice, particularly as it warms up and more flavor emerges. Nice mineral/yeast note. Full and juicy taste. Brimming with more of those fruity hop flavors. Mild bitterness. I could understand wanting a smidge more, but I like it. Fair bit of astringency, which I really like in these New England-style/English yeast IPAs. Reminds me of some Hoof Hearted beers. I would love to see this brewery make more beers like this and see them in cans.
