16 ounce can. Typical Hazy appearance. Aroma is pineapple, mango, ready mall, and yeast. Flavor has more juicy character than I expected. Low bitterness with the tropical fruits and bready malt backbone. Overall, this is the best beer I have had from this brewery. Also can was at a reasonable price point.

Canned 6/7, drunk 7/8/18.
Pale golden-to-deeper, ripe peach. Soupy, with a frothy, white head showing moderate-to-low retention.
Big citrus, pepper and dough in the nose, with sparse cracker, as well. Mixed amounts of juiciness and a touch jumbled with more yeast remaining here than is needed.
Grapefruit and lemon are prominent in the mouth, with cracker and dough and surprisingly more cleanliness than the aroma would suggest. Softish texture with actual malt depth and tight carbonation. Improves with warming, as well, showing sweet, honey-like malts, moderately juicy citrus, fresh, green, spicy hops and thankfully, no onion/scallion from the Mosaic. An actual good NE IPA from these guys. Finally Marsh Island does it.
