New England IPA with oats and Motueka hops by one of the currently most hyped hazy IPA producers in the world, can shared by Craftmember, cheers! Egg-white, dotty-lacing, medium thick head on a cloudy to even milky apricot blonde beer. Luscious aroma of passionfruit, ripe mango, even papaja, lemon cake, moist white pepper, stewed white celery, overripe onion hint, damp marijuana. Juicy-fruity, tropical onset, pitaya, mango and rambutan fruits with a peachy touch, soft carb, very light lime-like sourish touch; smooth, creamy body, doughy maltiness soaked in utterly tropical fruit-juiciness – all the passionfruit, papaja and mango returning, along with a soft citric edge somewhere. That ‘greenish’ stewed celery effect pops up again too, but actual hop bitterness remains very low; still this beer, contrary to many lesser NEIPAs, manages to avoid an annoying fruit juice sweetness to be the last impression after swallowing. Typical present-day NEIPA in all respects, top quality and very well made in its respective style – but I would not go wait in line for it either…

Can at the 2nd Lockdown Tasting, thanks to Dave, Watford Tahn 14/08/20. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white head that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is orange creme, grass, light weed, melon, trace of hop spice, pine needle. Taste comprises ripe pineapple, hint of lime leaf - a la Sabro-esque, weed, citric pith. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close closing with balanced juicy hop bitterness. Decent.

Pours a hazy, banana-smoothie yellow, with minimal head. Aroma has some citrus and grass. Flavor is a sprightly citrus, some lemon. Doesn't really taste all that much like an IPA to be honest. The mouthfeel is light and slightly sweet. There's just a tiny touch of hop bitterness to the finish. Interesting.

Draught at the source: pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is lemony tropical fruitiness. Taste is smooth, fruity, low bitterness. Nice citrusy touches. Quite good.
