(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours near-opaque dull pale orange with a soild white head and heavy lace. Aroma and taste are a mix of yellow/green citrus peel and pulp, dank and rather grapefruity Riwaka, green melon, white grape, underripe fruit, some floral/perfumed undertone to it, malt body is quite dry and lightly bready, touch of acidic impression to go with the citrus notes, finish is dry and lightly to moderately bitter, grippy dank grapefruity Riwaka and some melon in the aftertaste, touch of astringency. Light to medium body, above average but smooth carbonation. Solid dry Riwaka-forward but balanced NEIPA, feels like one of the drier entries in this series too.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops undertones with some juicy notes and tropical notes are also noticeable.. Taste is also a mix of juicy citrusy and tropical hops notes with some dank floral hops undertones and a dry finish. Body is full with good carbonation. Well brewed NEIPA with a nice tropical twist while keeping a dry finish.

16oz (thx, Max C. for the delivery it to the West Coast!) @ 🏡 shared with wife. Appearance: murky blonde with a huge white head. Aroma: dank, juicy, a bit dusty. Taste: along the same lines, a bit light on the body. Finished with a low to moderate dusty bitterness. Overall: pretty good, but not very impressive.

Hazy golden colour with a big white frothy head, good retention and loads of creamy thicker-foamy lacing. Lemon zest aromas with some oat mild sweetness and hints of orange juice. The taste has the zest-peel citrus action more, than juices, with some nice dryness, and a touch of bitterness. Very smooth all-around with more of the citrus peel.
