Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy pale yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical hops notes and a semi-sweet finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical notes and a semi-sweet finish. Body is a bit light for style with a creamy feel with good carbonation. Enjoyable NEPA but fuller body would have been better.

16 oz can from Bakes, 1/24/25. Fully hazy yellow, white head. Strong lacework. Orange, pineapple, peach, and some cantaloupe. A little sweet. Fairly clean. Slightly dry on the close. Good mouthfeel. Good beer overall.
