Can picked up from Bierliefhebber, webshop, I think? Elsen, Netherlands. Had this at home listening to England v Germany, Euro Championships, Tuesday 29th June 2021. Pours warm gold to light orange with a white head. Dank aroma, some peach and apricot adding a fruity flurry. Sweet, juicy, tangy, fruitiness is again mostly summer stone fruits, peach, apricot and perhaps a little overipe plum adding a light tanginess. It's good. England 2-0 Germany.

440ml. can. @home, 11/05/2021 [#3.942 Global - #444 England - #2 Lost Pier Brewing] Pours hazy yellow with a medium and frothy white head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma: dank and fruity. Taste: dank and sugary leading to a sweet and tangy finish. Very similar to the previous one I tasted from this brewery. Next one please!

Straight from can during a hike. Color: Like (almost) all NEIPA's hazy golden / orange with white head, I presume? Didn't check. Aroma: Hoppy, fruity. Taste: Orange, orange peel, some grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple also. Nice amount of mostly fruity bitterness, combined with a sturdy and quite sweetish wheat malt background. Smooth and pretty dense mouthfeel. Almost creamy, but that may be affected by a little shaking in my backpack.
