clear to very slightly hazy yellow, white head.
very fruity aroma, pinapple, peaches, mango kind of fruitiness, also a bit of herbal hoppiness.
flavor is ripe exotic fruity with a herbal hoppy balance. The sweetness is almost flowery as in belgian triple, in fact if i blind tasted this i would guess belgian tripel where the yeast is not very present - like macro belgian tripel.

Hazy, pale. No head. Ok, there's a lot of hop here but it is definitely on that overripe fruit note. Things are blending together. There's a hit of alcohol and moderate bitterness. It's okay, but the hops sort of blend together.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 11/05/2024; thanks Sammy). Hazy medium dark gold with small white head. Citrus and feint stone fruit hops, hint of booze, decent.

Thx, Ryan!
Fruity and soapy, citrusy. Taste is along the same lines, kinda sweet, fruity. It's sharp and not nicely balanced. Meh.

(Draught at Beer Temple, Amsterdam, 18 Feb 2023) Cloudy golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with mango, pineapple, tropical fruit and orange. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of mango, pineapple, citrus, peaches, grass, white bread and a balanced citric/tropical bitterness. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Fresh, tasty and juicy. Very nice.

Draught Quite substantial, dense, fluffy yellowish head over fully hazy orange-golden beer. Fresh spring leaves and lots of citrus, nectarine, lunaria, hints at cilandro. Also a sharpish, burning aroma ~ to the hops, no doubt. A toasted flavour, as toasted leaves, resin, and fruity esters. Hopburn? Wild, or not quite ripe yellow fruit. Feels filled by the hopoils, very slick. Good carbonation. Quite OK DIPA, maybe at the edge of overdone.

16 oz. can thanks to Craftyhalfpint. Flavor has a array of fruits. Passion fruit, papaya, and perhaps melon. Texture is very juicy with zero bitterness. It’s a very well made representation of a NEIPA. This is really good.
