Can shared at Naiv. Murky, slightly orangeish golden pour with a white head. Nose is intense peach, some apricot and papaya with a slight malty undertone. Taste is obviously hop-forward and is lead by tropical fruits, citrus zest, candied apricot and peach with just a hint of spicy touch. Light to medium, somewhat creamy bodied with soft carbonation. Not your usual NEIPA but it definitely works!

Can. Pours a hazy orange gold with medium white head that lasts. The aroma is citrus and pine. Medium body, grass, citrus, earth, bitter finish, very good.

Despite the Kveik this tastes essentially like an NEIPA, but with subtle differences and nuances that make it more interesting. Thankfully none of that sweet oat creaminess which is all the rage. Slightly bitter, faintly herbaceous.

Hazy golden. Aroma is nice tropical fruit all the way, mango guava and peach with a touch of grassiness and some toast. Taste is sweet juicy fruit with a bitter hop punch. Very balanced and rich body with a yeasty texture. Good one!

440ml can. Murky, orange, dark golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Juicy, tropical fruity, hoppy, sweet-ish wheat malty and minimally spicy, rye malty aroma, notes of mango and passion fruit, some orange, kumquat. Taste bitter and juicy, tropical fruity hoppy, mildly funky yeasty, sweet-ish, wheaty and slightly spicy, rye malty basis, notes of passion fruit and mango, zesty notes of orange, some kumquat, some fruit acidic tartness, peppery spicy, yeasty overtones, pungent, zesty bitterness; lingering, zesty bitter and peppery spicy, yeasty finish. Slightly creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously pungent palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Immensely fruity, surprisingly bitter, in fact too bitter; though matching with the fruitiness finally too peppery spicy as well, overall resulting a slightly harsh finish - not a pure pleasure.

Can sourced from Craftbeer-Shop.com and drunk at home (12/04/2022) - New 🇩🇪 brewery ✅ pours hazy gold with a white head. Sweet malty and citrus fruity, kind of a stewed orange, grapefruit, fruit salad, actually pretty sticky sweet, medium body, dry resinous bitter citrus peel hoppy close. Alright.

Can. Golden, mostlu clear with small protein (?) flakes suspended, low offwhite head.Tropical/pineapple/herbal nose. Medium to full dry chewy body with a bit of fizz. Pineapple, lychee cocktail, sweet, but well balanced. Grape, melon rind bitterness, pleasant minerals, solid, full yet moreish finish. Good stuff.
