Reviewed from notes.
Can to English pint glass. Can dated 06/30/2022 and this was consumed on 07/28/2022.
Appearance: pretty thick orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: mango, pineapple, peach and some light lemon; light bready malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine juicy sweet to light bittersweet quality; finishes semi-juicy sweet of the pineapple, peach and lemon tones with a touch of dryness
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness but also a little bit of hop burn then just a speck of dryness trying to permeate the tongue
Overall: pretty nicely done for the most part, just clean up that hop burn, Aeronaut and this will be a really good one.

Draught at Everett, 11/6/21. Lightly-to-moderately hazy, bronze-golden with a small, white head showing light-to-moderate retention. Pretty standard juiciness in the nose with orange, papaya, mango and lemon. Light bubble gum, a touch of honey and some light pine on the end. Lightly juicy, very well-attenuated and still moderately malty, though very dry. Orange, peach, papaya and mango give a very standard rendition of the prototypical NE IPA. Could stand a little more malt heft and hop explosiveness for its size. It kinda drinks more like a 5%er. But it's clean, dry, not twangy, so hard to be too mad.
