Brewery draught, 8/16/25.
Moderately hazy, beeswax-bronze with a small, off-white, fleeting head.
Bright pineapple and mango in the nose without any big acid from the Galaxy. Not piney or sprucey, which is impressive. I didn't even pick out that this was Galaxy. Rich wheat and malt keeps the hops at bay and it's vibrant and tropical without twang.
Juicy and pineapple-forward with, again, a lack of any austere Galaxy. No chalk, burnt earth or intense Spruce acidity. Tropical, fruity, with decent, but not overdone bitterness and a chewy, biscuity wheatiness that helps balance.

Hazy orange colour and small white head. Murky orange-yellow colour, small white head and lace. Fruity porridge vibe in the nose. Full-bodied. Grapefruity, apricot, maybe mango. Touch of alcohol. Heavy.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thank you Tom!! New Park is still my favorite CT brewery. Flavor is bursting with mixed citrus, mango and soft, lasting grapefruit that’s mildly bitter. Body is the medium plus with a nice chewy out texture. Wonderful brew!

Can pour shared by Steve. Opaque, milky yellow with nice head and decent lacing. Aroma is herbal and citrusy. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture, medium bodied with soft carbonation and finish as taste. What you'd expect from Galaxy and Citra without any surprises. Not terribly strong. Fine but not a NP standout.
