Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: bronzed yellow to orange color with a half a finger of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: piney to pineapple to papaya-ish hop notes with a light mixed citrusy sort of hop arrangement; barely any malts show any presence
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet juicy to to bittersweet juicy quality; finishes slightly dry with some tropical hop notes
Texture: light to medium bodied; great sessionability; good smoothness; nice low carb and low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: very nicely done NEIPA I would return to.

Can: Poured a hazy bright yellow color ale with a nice large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy notes with light tropical fruit is enjoyable. Taste is a mix of juicy citrusy notes with light tropical notes with a dry finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. Refreshing and well brewed but maybe a tad dryer then I like.

Thanks Brennan for sharing the can! Poured into a snifter showing lightly filtered straw with clean white foam lacing. The nose shows moderately intense papaya, pine, and light cannabis. The palate is well carbonated and lightly filtered. Pronounced notes of papaya with moderately intense notes of kiwi and light cannabis. Barely any bitterness on the finish with a clean malt backbone on the end.

Can thnx to kyle !!! Drank from the can to perserve the aromas, so no info on the pour. Can is alluminum with a sticker,not too much info about the beer itself on it but it looks classy as they have a unique house style. Smell is juicy, pineapple and mango, tropical, typical NE style yeastyness. Taste is bitter, but not over the top. Dank, pine, resins, some pineapple and mango toward thz back but much less than expected. Overall really, really nice. it comes to no-one as a surprise that HF know how to make great beer, I guess , yet its always a pleasure to see it proven yet again.

Fresh 12 oz. can purchased at the source. Thanks Adam! Aromas of danky pine, mellow citrus, pale grain. Flavor shows lime peel, Lemon juice, notes of grapefruit. Pine resin comes through with a good amount of bitterness.
This is very different from IPA's offered in 2017. I like the old school vine to it. Plenty of pine with light citrus.

12oz Can. pale yellow appearance. nose is pineapple, mango and kiwi. Exceptional mouthfeel. Juicy, thick and fresca-like with lemon, orange, kiwi and grapefruit. Finish is chewy hop resin and lingering bitterness. Excellent addition to the series!
