Draught at the brewery, 8/28/21.
Moderately hazy, pale-ish brass-golden with a small, white head showing moderate retention.
Really lovely nose is fruity, juicy and shows a good deal of pine-accented citrus without any excess of weird yeastiness going on. Pretty standard NEIPA though it reminds me more in the vein of the VT-style ones - lighter, hoppier and less thickly-textured. No alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's pleasingly juicy, with ample but not excessive bitterness and varied citrus with light tropical fruit on the side. Honey-like malts are rich and deep yet well-attenuated. Engaging carbonation and just clean and drinkable.

Mostly just green onion without much fruitiness. Perfect beer to send off the 45th. Some hop tang sourness left in my mouth. Murky yellow pour with ok head. Can.

3 week old can A: Very cloudy dull yellow with a short head. Fair retention and patchy lace. S: Citrus and tropical fruits. Grapefruit, lemon, peach and pineapple. Light honey. T: Pretty bitter with strong grapefruit pith and lemon/lime. A little pineapple astringency and biscuity malt. M: High level of soft carbonation. Light and airy body and clean finish. O: Very tasty with a nice texture and no noticeable hop burn. Lowish ABV. I'd buy again.

From a 12 oz. can. Pours a cloudy straw with a massive off white head. Aromas of pineapple. Flavors are bitter citrus and pine.

Pour is a hazy orange with a average white head. Aroma is a bit of pine and bitter orange peel. Flavor is sweet jolly rancher orange with a little bitterness after the swallow. This is too sweet and there is no discernible hop presence. A perfect example of a brewer whipping up something quickly because it's trendy.

12oz can pours with a somewhat murky copper body that has thin gold hued edges and supports a nice dirty white head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The modest aroma offers up grapefruit, a bit of pineapple and then a ripe tangelo juice note at the end of the draw. The taste delivers softness across the palate as juicy grapefruit, pineapple and then citrus zest mingle with a mild maltiness. The hop bitterness grows to midway and into the finish with increased grapefruit and slightly resiny notes that try to take over the flavor. This attains a pleasing balance.
