Reviewed from notes. Can from Winooski Beverage purchased in early to mid August of 2024; consumed 08/17/2024
Can to tulip.
Appearance: milky hazy yellow color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which settled fairly quick and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: grapefruity, white grapes, subtle lime to lemony hop notes with a light biscuity malt backbone
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a sweet to bittersweet juicy vibe and adds in an ever so slight hint of mixed berries (not sure why I didn't smell this, eh who knows). Finishes very clean with the white grapey part and lime to lemony tone
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being sessionable; some smoothness but also a note of some hop assertiveness - nothing to get spun up about - it's just a little noticeable
Overall: a very nicely done NEIPA I would very much love to return to.

Pours a hazy, lemon-peach color, with smallish head. Aroma is very citrusy, with some tropical fruit notes as well. Flavor follows, with a touch of spice, white wine. Mouthfeel seems a touch thin. Very mild hop bitterness in the finish.

Fenway draught, 8/9/24. Heavily hazy, lime-golden. Small, white head. Heavily fruity, playful Motueka combines with biscuity, interesting malt character. Not massively aromatic, though more of an earthy, mineral-like character. Deep and funky. Malty, with that interesting, almost brioche and vanilla-like malt character. Hops play second fiddle almost. Lime, orange, strawberry and light papaya. Very playful with deep malts. Very low bitterness. Strong lingering salinity and mineral, drying out nice. Super interesting stuff and far from a cookie-cutter IPA. I'd buy a 4 pack of this if I didn't have way too much God damned beer already.
