Hidden City

Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky/hazy burnt orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy to floral hop tones with a light tangerine; clean malts in the background
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to more of the sweet side with a lighter hint of bitterness; finishes citrusy and floral
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; fairly mobile to the tongue (maybe a step up from being watery)
Overall: not exactly the NEIPA that I may have been looking for, but also not the bottom of the barrel.

Cheap four pack. Light orange brew with a nice white head. Nose is tropical fruits and yeast. Tastes of lemon, mango, pineapple, tangerine. Some grassy notes and floral. Thinner bodied. No bitterness.

On tap-thin retaining offwhite-hazy/cloudy gold. A-orange/tangerine/some pineapple. T-follows with some herbal hop bit, 2nd lt malt.

Draught at the brewery, 4/8/17.
Bright orange-melon-copper body shows a medium amount of haziness and an off-white head atop is medium-sized and well-retained.
Tangy apricot, peach and tangerine with papaya and light mango make for an initially juicy nose. Further in, notes of sweat, dry pineapple, pine and strong esters break through with a sourdough and biscuit character lying underneath. Very sharp and estery on the end.
Again, like many of their other pale ales and IPAs, there’s just not quite enough malt backbone to manage the ester, alcohol and acidity from the hops and what starts out promisingly enough, with juicy mango, apricot, tangerine and papaya, turns to bitter pith and resin with sharp esters and alcohol heat. The carbonation is on point, but we just need more malt depth to balance and soften everything.
