This fruit-forward juice bomb NEIPA comes with a huge dose of Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo and El Dorado, which add an amazing nose and plenty of juiciness to this beer. As pretentious as a beer can get!

Can pour from the brewery from a trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is opaque dark yellow-light brown with lots of bubbles at the side of the glass and effervescent sparkle, 3-finger foamy white head with decent retention and light leggy lacing. Unfortunately, last 10th was a yeast dump with floaties and detritus on the floor of the glass. Aroma is strong apricot and an almost orange sherbet. Taste is mix of apricot, citrus bite, late mild herbs and malt backbone presence. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and crisp, fairly dry finish as taste with very mild lingering bitterness. Overall, my first go-round with this brewer and pleasantly surprised. The almost creamy orange in the aroma is a nice change of pace. Nice look if you keep the last 10th in the can, meaty mouthfeel and strong, pleasant flavors. Would be interested in trying more.

16 oz. can purchased at Littleton co op. Aroma is nice citrus, soft herbs. Flavor is bolder citrus with a very light note of herb. Absolutely no bitterness. Has proper carbonation and mouth feel. Nothing flashy but pretty well-made.
