Can, picked up at the brewery. Pretty sure I didn’t add this as a Hazy/NE IPA. And it definitely isn’t. Whatever. Mostly clear medium gold. Fine white head is lasting and lacing. Nose has light piny notes. Candied peel. Stewed citrus. Super clean malt. Taste sets off sweet, with a moderate, piny, slightly earthy bitterness. Medium body. Some oiliness. Fine carbonation. Lingering bitterness to finish. Tasty gear.

Can from HoTM. It pours hazy golden with a thick, frothy white head. The aroma is green, weedy, yet soft and sweet, peachy, orange creamsicle and orange gummy bears. The taste is dry, weedy, green, fairly sweet, bitter - sweet, quite muted actually, apricot, peach, persimmon, orange creamsicle and just a touch of spice with a dryish. Medium body and average carbonation. A bit muted/muddled. Its ok, but aub-par for SMOD.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from All Good Beer HD. Pours cloudy orange-gold with a big, fluffy white head. Sweet and smooth, with rounded pale bread, juicy citrus fruits minimal bitterness, mild yeast expression, vanilla accents. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with more bready pale malt sweetness, ripening oranges and tangerines, creamsicle, light rindy bitterness. Quite tasty overall.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 06/11/20. Murky orange amber with a well presented lasting off white head. Nose is orange pith, grass, melon, dusty tropical fruits, lemon zest. Taste comprises orange zest, ripe citric flesh, grass, yeast esters, light astringency, peach. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with balanced hop bitterness. Decent enough IPA but not the usual form from SMOD offered .... just a little cluttered this one ... kind of 10% Belgian leaning.
