Draft: Poured a slightly hazy yellow color ale with a white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of citrusy notes with some juicy hops undertones, taste is also a mix of juicy hops undertone with some citrusy notes and light bitter finish. Body is pretty full for style with good carbonation. Good but doesn’t have the juicy explosiveness that I am looking for in the style.
Light fruit, grass, onion, herb.

Draught at North Taproom, 10/15/22. Heavily hazy, pale orange juice/concrete with a small, moderately-retained, white head. Soft, easygoing wheat smooths out any rough edges (doesn't seem to have any). Big juicy hops with hints of tropical fruit and zero sign of onion/scallion/pine/resin or anything remotely unpleasant, just bright, juicy hoppy goodness with a clean yeast and supportive, well-attenuated malts. Soft and juicy, very clean and snappy with tropical fruit, mild but ample bitterness and soft wheat, dainty honey and moderate cracker from the malt. No stand-out notes from the hops, but instead a well-integrated tropical-citrus-juice melange. Stunning balance and great flavor and malt depth. Wow, going to have to go back to Twin Barns and try more soon.

4 oz. at the brewery. Mosaic dominated; grassy, onion, herb. Good texture and almost no bitterness. Lightly grassy. Good for mosaic lovers. I like it. But to really enjoy it, you need to want grass.

Taster pour on tap at NH Brewers Festival. Appearance is lightly hazy, rich yellow with no sparkle, thin ring of white head. Aroma is vague fruit, perhaps a little grapefruit. Taste is dank, citrusy--kind of west coast-y. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation with finish as taste. Overall, not a terrible west coast IPA but needs some work to be a sought after NEIPA. Didn't enjoy it.
