Can sourced from Beerdome and drunk at home - amber pour with a off white head. New brewery ✅sweet fruity and malty, notes of tangelo from the waimea, passionfruit and further citrus from the galaxy and citra, sweet malty backbone, clearly veering more classic west coast for my palate (even though brewery themselves added as NEDIPA), some solid bitterness into the hoppy finish. Good stuff

473ml can. Cloudy, orangey, golden colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Zesty, citrusy, minimally leafy-grassy, and herbal-fruity, hoppy and caramel malty as well as slightly biscuity, pale malty aroma, notes of lemon, lemon tea, a touch of black tea, whiffs of juniper berry and elderberry. Taste is dry, citrusy fruity and slightly earthy, leafy-grassy and herbal-fruity hoppy, caramel malty basis with little residual sweetness, notes of lemon, lemon tea, a touch of black tea, whiffs of juniper berry, elderberry, even some salty liquorice. Minimally viscous-oily, still watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously dry palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Not exactly Hazy / NEIPA-style DIPA, rather quite dry and earthy hoppy, caramel malty backbone; nevertheless neither typical West Coast style nor hybrid in a way. An earthy herbal-fruity (instead of piney and citrusy) interpretation of West Coast IPA to me - definitely a widening of my personal spectrum of hop experience.
