Can from my parents: pours a dull hazy purple. Aroma is berries and that sort of typical NEIPA fruitiness. Taste is moderately sweet, berries not well represented, mild hop burn at the finish.

From a 375ml can on 26/2/2019. Pours a murky peach red colour with a tinge of purple and a small head. It actually does smell a bit like fresh blueberries, with a bit of grassiness in the mix. Flavour wise, it features lots of sweet blueberry against a quite herbaceous background. Finishes with quite a pronounced dry, lingering bitterness, which is not typical NEIPA, but actually works rather well here. Has nice mouthfeel. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. An unusual take on the style and comes together very nicely. Great packaging too.

Draft. An unclear amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of lemon, berries, snd malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of blueberries, malt, and straw, leading to a bitter finish. A bit odd, where are the hops?
