Can to becher pint glass.
Appearance: golden yellow haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated mildly to leave some messy lace
Aroma: grapefruity hops then some lime and passion fruit character blending very nicely
Flavor: blends the prior mentioned aromas bittersweetly and left a mild citrusy aftertaste
Texture: light to medium bodied, good sessionability, semi-dry cirrusy finish
Overall: I'd say a nicely NEIPA worthy of having again.

Pour at Snallygaster 2025. Poured a super hazy orange color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was some bitter grapefruit zest, passion fruit. Flavor was grapefruits, pineapple, citrus. Mild herbal notes. Pleasant.

Can from Tavour. Pours hazy gold with a moderate white head. Aroma has a lot of grapefruit. Med body. Flavor has a lot of grapefruit, including pith. Fairly dry and nicely, bitingly bitter. Very good.

Draught @ George Keeley, Manhattan. Extremely hazy dull yellow with a very small ring of off-white head, citrus aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter lemon zest taste, thin body, long lemon zest finish. Flavorful. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Pixel Density on 06 Jul 2024 at 18:03 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.

Can (1/11/24) pour from The Beer Store, Salem. Opaque, milky bright yellow with nice sparkle, large head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is strong lemon-orange citrus, milder herb. Taste follows aroma without herb and with cracker/grain. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Took a bit of a chance given it's age, but it's held up pretty well.

Can at home shared with Laura. Unclear murky ugly fruit juice appearance. White head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, hops, overripe fruit hoppy. Also I get the weird association of dusty dry orange pulp. Moderate to decently bitter. One of so so many. Not impressed. -- Tried again September 19th 2024: way better! Nicely bitter, even a bit piney. This time I'm loving it! I'd say 5-7,5-8,5-8-8,5 now.
