Named for the local mountain, Bondcliff DIPA pours a pale yellow with a soft white head. The aroma is bursting with apricots, tangerine pith, and pineapple. A mellow bitterness gives way to mango and creamsicle. Finishes bright with a soft mouthfeel.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky to hazy orange cardboard color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some lace
Aroma: some pineapple, orange pulp & light mango, subtle crisp biscuity malts
Flavor: bittersweet juiciness of all the prior mentioned aromas, light aftertaste of pineapple and orange pulp
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability but somewhat could be a sipper, finishes juicy smooth
Overall: a very nicely done NEDIPA worthy of coming back to.

Sample at Churchkey. Looks like pulp. Some legs too. Nose is a little odd, stone fruits and over ripe tropicals. Smells big. Flavor has peach and melon and papaya. Glass was a bit warm and I think that left me feeling all of the booze. A pinch overdone.

Flavor upfront shows mango, tangerine rind. Mild pine and pine resin is in the finish. As it warms the resin comes forward a lot more. Don’t get me wrong, well-made just a bit more pine resin then I personally prefer.

Can (11/15/22) pour from Candia First Stoppe Country Store. It's a cloudy dark yellow-light brown with light sparkle, finger-width off-white foamy head with excellent retention and fair lacing. Aroma is strong apricot and pineapple. Taste is strong apricot, pineapple, pine. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with lingering dry bitterness. Overall, a tale of two halves--first half Double Hazy NEIPA, second half West Coast DIPA. Not sure they were going for a hybrid East-West, and not sure I love it, but rarely have I tasted both so distinctly. Interesting.

Brewery draught, 12/16/22. Heavily hazy, peachy-golden-maize. White head quickly recedes to spotty cover. That's pretty twangy in the nose with bits of pine, unripe papaya and punchy pineapple. Just too much twangy tropical fruit with acidity exacerbated by pithy citrus and light resin. Flavor follows, quickly fatiguing the palate. Was done with it after two sips and dumped it in the bathroom.
