Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: hazed over orange color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: mixed citrusy hops with orange juicy/pulpy character; some mango and/or papaya hop notes in there with a nice clean sweet wafery malt far underneath
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet juicy to creamy quality; finishes the same way
Texture: medium bodied, nice as a sipper; clean smoothness along the tongue with nothing distracting any where; nice low hop bitterness and the carb level is exactly where it's supposed to be
Overall: what an absolutely wonderful NEDIPA I would definitely come back to.

Definitely the best of theirs that I’ve had. Creamy citrus hops. Big tropical notes on the nose. Lemon sherbet candies, tangerine, some dank pine. Big oaty mouthfeel

Pours a hazy, banana smoothie yellow, with rather smallish head. Aroma is a rather muted combo of citrus and tropical fruits. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, some moderate hop bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel.

Canned 1/31/23, drunk 2/23/23. Turbid, bright orange juice. Large, well-retained, off-white, yellow-tinged head. Jam-packed, dense Citra creates really intensified orange juice pulp with almost a melon/mango character to it, as well. Oats and wheat soften things, giving a nutty-to-creamy character. No punch, resin, booze, flaw or weird yeast. Well-attenuated malts, assumedly. Wow. Soft, succulent, juicy with no punchiness or melony twang. No weird yeast, no resin. Really nothing to be displeased with here. Just pure, unadulterated, fresh squeezed orange juice. I guess if I have to give criticism, it could use a touch more bitterness, but it's not lacking and the beer is extremely well-attenuated and has the creamy, soft, dry wheat. No alcohol, flaw. Drinks like rich, creamy, fresh-squeezed OJ. Last sip, after fully warming, had, perhaps, a touch of alcohol sharpness?
