It's an neipa in appearance and citrus flavors but relatively High bitterness for the style. Citrus is very forward in Aroma and flavors with a lingering dominant bitterness in Finnish.

Can from Craft Beer Kings. Pours hazy grapefruit color with a foamy white head. Aroma is juicy tropical. Med body. Flavor is juicy. Must be some citrus/grapefruit, but there's other tropicals. There's something that's either earthy or dank. Hard to say. Quite dry for me. Fruity, juicy and bitter. Very tasty.
