Blue Comet our flagship and was awarded a silver medal at the 2022 World Cup in the category of Hazy/Juice India Pale Ale. This beer is packed with Simcoe and Comet hops providing a ripe tropical fruit nose that is backed up in the taste. Complimented by a soft biscuity malt character. Pours a hazy yellow with a medium white head.

17 IBU, lol. On tap at Alewives, pours an opaque muddy peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has some pithy stone fruitiness, gentle juicy citrusy hops, and oats. Flavour is fairly fruity, with overripe stone fruits, underripe green berries, gentle hopburn, and a touch of citrus. Far from the worst hopburn/chalk offenders out there, but still rather messy and incoherent. Okay.

Draught at Barcade: pours hazy with a white head. Aroma some tropical and citrusy notes. Taste is slightly bitter, sweetish. Solid.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: nice looking glossy orange haziness with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: tropical fruity hops; subtle backing of hemp-like character; mellow biscuity malts
Flavor: bittersweet juicy hoppiness; hemp seems further back; mild aftertaste of tropical fruits
Texture: medium bodied; good as a sipper; nice low carb, mostly smooth along tongue; finishes tropical fruity and semi-dry
Overall: pretty good NEIPA I would come back to.

Tap at the Prague Beer Fest Day 0. Murky orange body, lasting thick off-white head. BIt empty aroma, orange, citric, lightly floral notes, okayish. Sweetish taste, orange, herbal, peachy notes... quite empty. Likely a victim of age sadly.

Hazy gold in color with a three-finger head. Aroma was hoppy tropical fruit. Taste was tropical fruit and pine resin.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Can at home. Yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor are decently malty, hoppy, fruity and a bit sweetish hoppy but nice overall.
