Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and light mango/tropical notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes, some mango and tropical notes and a semi-dry finish. Body is full for style with good carbonation. Interesting juicy NEIPA with nice tropical features.

Pale, hazy, with a thin head. Assertive, punishing hop aroma. It's a lot of sauvin, but I am unsure if it's the best expression. But it's a lot. It's got a nice pale malt base, and tons of hop. Melony, a bit citrusy, I think the hop comes across a bit better on the palate.

16oz (thx, Alex G.!) @ Sales Force. Appearance: hazy golden with a white head. Aroma: dank, some iron rust, juicy, some dryness. Weird one. Taste: juicy, some sweetness, dank, maybe slightly boozy. Overall: not bad.

Poured from 473mL can. Murky blond gold with small white head. Dank, tropical hops, odd powdery note, still decent.

I have to say, was expecting a Nelson Sauvin bomb. Nope, just a really good juicy Double IPA. Hazy, golden-amber with a big creamy-frothy, warm-white head, quite good retention and leaving so much lacing. A touch vinous with white grapes in the nose, but blended with some stone fruits and herbal notes. The mouthfeel is thick, oily and some nice dryness builds in the end. The Nectaron hops come out a little more in the taste with decent grassiness. Yep, a tad more nectarine than the wanted Sauvin.

A hazed milky yellow DIPA with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice and smooth classic. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, light tropical fruits, very nice. On tap at Hautes Plaines location.
