Upon cracking this can, you may begin to daydream, but this hoppy heaven of a beer is real life. The aggressively hop forward nose, provided by Nugget and Mosaic, is followed by waves of citrus and tropical fruits from Cascade and Citra. The medium body from oats and unmalted wheat leads you into a palate full of fresh squeezed orange juice and hints of grapefruit thanks to the addition of Simcoe. The finish is surprisingly clean with a lingering fruitiness that begs for another gulp.

16oz can from Hops & Bottles. Hazy yellow pour with an ample fluffy white head. Bready aroma with notes of grapefruit peel. Taste is a juicy, thick, citrusy blend, orange, grapefruit, pineapple. Luscious feel, zesty finish.

Pineapple, tangerine. Rich hops profile. Murky orange pour with decent head and lacing. Some green onion in the finish but this is pretty decent. Can.

On-tap in the Beach Hut Deli, Mission Viejo on 23rd February 2022, my 16oz pour had no head, just a wispy white scum on top of the cloudy dull golden body. Dank and fruity hop aroma/taste, grapefruit and pineapple semi-sweet overall.

44 cl can @ home. Rated on 7.11.2020 Aroma has grapefruit, fruit juice and pineapples. Flavour has grapefruit, tropical fruits and some fruit juice. Crisp and solid NEIPA, perhaps a tad too high on grapefruit though.
