This is very sweet and one of the sweetest, most fruity iPas I have had it is good but not really an IPA --- Beer merged from original tick of Break O'Day on 26 Jul 2019 at 18:39 - Score: 7

Bottle shared by Jeff, thanks! Pours a hazy orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has earthy grains and a bit of straw with some juicy tropical fruits. Flavor has earthy grains with a bit of musty wood and sweet tropical fruits.

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Menomonee Falls, 4/16/19. Hazy orange, large foamy off-white head, good retention. Aroma of orange juice and a bit of lime. Taste is lime, orange, tropical fruit, pale malt. This has taken hazy IPAs to their natural conclusion which is essentially no different than fruit juice. I guess they deserve credit for creating the ultimate example of a bullshit style, but I'm not loving it.

Pours a slightly hazy, pale lemon yellow, with minimal head. Aroma is dank and sour, with some citrus. Flavor is sweet with some horrible infusion of juice--tastes like peach tea. Just awful flavor. I find it hard to believe this is a New Glarus beer. This is easily the worst one of their beers I've ever stumbled across.

Aromas are hugely Citrus with a little bit of malt and hops. Flavors are likewise hugely citrus with a bit of bitter in the Finish but almost no sign of hop flavor. A Pity I expected more here.
