Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: pale yellow cardboard haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: light piney to slight pineapple-y to subtle citrusy and a touch of honey followed by some light malts
Flavor: seems to blend the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet sort of quality; finishes citrusy to pineapple-y hoppy character with a subtle juiciness to it
Texture: about medium bodied - maybe a touch under; sessionable; smooth along the tongue with a slight juiciness to it
Overall: a very nicely done NEDIPA more than worthy of returning to.

Canned 11/8/24, drunk 12/15/24. Heavily hazy, bronze-maize. Medium-sized, white head. Mellow, well-hopped nose with crusty, chewy wheat and no punch or resin. Some pine and pineapple with no twang. Quite dry, but not undermalted. Just highly attenuated and wheat-heavy. In the mouth it's incredibly soft, supple, succulent with honey, biscuit, chewy wheat and juicy, pine-and-spruce-laced hops. Like a lighter Galaxy IPA but without the heavy chalky spruce. As usual, it pays to let your IPAs sit for a month or two.

Pours hazy gold into a willi. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface leaving trailing sheets. Mango and passion fruit aromas. Thick with sweet mango, passion fruit, guava and papaya upfront turning to tongue-stripping, very bitter apple (I disagree with the description that it is restrained) in dry, lasting finish. I love the can...Pierce is my favorite winter hike...
