We added late additions of Mosaic and Zythos hops showcasing the pineapple, tropical fruit and citrus hop character from these varieties.

The body is light, bitterness is low, but the hop flavor and aroma are definitely prominent. Oh yea, and – it’s hazy!

Slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a pure white head, only about a centimetre or so tall, that's quite large bubbled and leaves an ugly lace on the sides. Aroma of crisp grassy and very citrusey hops with grapefruit, a ton of alpha acids and a good deal of biscuity malt coming through as well. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy and very citrusey hops show through with a ton of bitterness, a lot of punch and alcohol noticeable and some juiciness is definitely shown from orange juice and mangoes on the end. Aftertaste is rich and robust with the hops and bitterness going strong throughout, with a ton of malt serving as a backbone and a nice juicy and fruity bite at the very end. Overall, a very nice New England IPA from Montana that hits all the right notes, aside from the bubbly head, with a great bitterness and even better balance. Great to sample, especially after only finding this at Yellowstone National Park! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from the Old Faithful General Store in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming on 31-July-2020 for US$2,29 sampled in my hotel room here in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming in Colter Bay Village on 02-August-2020.

12 oz from a six pack. Aroma is moldy overripe fruit, passionfruit, citrus peel. Pours hazy orange golden with a one finger white head with decent retention. Taste is lightly sweet, moderately bitter. Not very juicy. Not really all that close to what a NEIPA should be. Not horrible, but it could use a lot of work.
