Poured from a can dated 3/24/26 into a becher pint
Pours a hazy opaque goldenrod to orange with two and a half fingers of foamy white head that settles to a light covering leaving lots of sticky lacing
Aroma of sweet white grapefruit candy, lime juice, and passion fruit dominate initially, notes dank marijuana and peach pull up the rear.
The taste follows the aroma with some light pineapple joining in. Pithy citrus peel adds a welcome bitterness mid to late in the taste.
Light bodied with a prickly medium light carbonation. Finishes rather dry and the welcomed bitterness makes a fairly smooth and very sessionable NEIPA.
Overall it's a good offering, I'd gladly have this one again although I was expecting a bit more punch from the hops.

Can at home. Murky yellow color, white head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, sweet hops, yadayadayada, the typical NEIPA without anything special tbh. Lightly grassy maybe. Meh, nothing special.

Blik via Keukeman geprobeerd met SandervdL. Het is een super troebel geel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van tropische vruchten en hop. De smaak is vol mango en banaan.

Draft: Poured a murky yellow white with a creamy white head. MrsSHIG said she was turned off by the appearance but her thoughts are not relevant in my ratings. Aroma is juicy hops, fruity, tropical, citrus, floral. Interesting nose, not sure if it blends together well. Taste is nice juicy hops forward, little bitter, fruits break in, tropical, melon, citrus, lively acidic, subsides in the finish.

Rated at G Livelab. Smooth and sweetish with some juicy tropical notes, citrus, pine, herbal hops and hints of grapefruit. Soft and juicy.
