Not totally murky in appearance. Aroma of moderate fruit, weak grass. The flavor shows mild fruit, herbal, and grass-like notes. Soft mouthfeel with a low bitterness. With 10,000 other examples of this style, (in this region alone) this is not really memorable.

On tap at Smuttynose, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank hops, stone fruits and light citrus. Flavour is along the same lines, with stone fruits, moderately dank hops, and biscuity malt. Not too yeasty, at fruity and dank; however, it's missing the depth of some of the elite NE IPAs out there. Decent.

Sample at the NH Brewers Association Brewfest. Dark yellow mostly clear thin white head. Sweet bready maltiness off set with some citrus and tropical fruits and earthy grassy hops. Tasty.

Taster pour at the source. Appearance is hazy, straw yellow with greenish tinge (urine looking) with no sparkle, finger-width white head with fair retention and light leggy lacing. Aroma is strong citrus with grapefruit, pine and mild tropical fruit. Taste is citrus, pine, grapefruit with cracker malt backbone. Palate is medium bodied with thin texture, average carbonation and dry, crisp citrus and cracker finish. Overall, it fits a NEIPA and ticks the right boxes but flavor/aroma aren't super strong. It's perfectly fine but pushing the envelope at all--seems like a safe NEIPA to appeal to the masses.
