Can: Poured a cloudy/hazy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrus and tropical notes with some mango undertones is quite enticing. Taste is a nice mix of citrusy and tropical hoppy floral undertones with some mango notes and some residual sugar notes. Body is full with good carbonation. Solid NEIPA with great juicy factor.

Lightly hazy golden-orange colour with a frothy-bubbly head that has average stay with a few bubbles left on the brew. Citrus, orange juice base with some herbal hoppy notes on top. Hints of pineapples and vanilla. Even a little spiciness with time, which is lighter in the taste. Citrus and tropical fruits in the taste with some decent dryness in the finish. A little herbal, a tad spicy, but decently blended grassiness. Gets cloudier with time, and particles are present in last pour. Goes down nicely.

(473ml can from L'Axe du Malt, Quebec City) Pours quite cloudy dark gold with a thick white head and a bit of lace. Aroma of white coconut, ripe canteloupe, sticky pineapple, canned peach, dill-like herbs, some malty heft behind, maybe a little citrus bitter accent. Flavour is quite sweet overall, overripe canteloupe soaked in coconut water, peach candies, some pineappe, fresh dill-like Sabro herbaceousness, citrus oils and resins more as an accent, decent amount of cereal/brioche heft to the malt, drying finish with some resins and lots of lingering coconut/herbs providing light to moderate bitterness. Lightish body for style, oily, moderate carbonation, a little boozy warmth for something that doesn't have the ABV to match being a DIPA. I enjoyed the hop profile here, interesting as I don't always love melon notes. Just a little rough.

A hazed blonde DIPA with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, light coconut, pleasant and smooth. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, tropical fruit, light coconut and citrus, very nice.
