Fresh 64oz growler shared by Heather on 12/31/17.
Heavily hazy, short of soupy, maize-bronze-golden with a large white head that slowly falls to cover.
Excellent mineral, nectarine, passion fruit and even strawberry pours forth from the glass. Brighter lime, spice and leafy, dank green round out the nose as soft biscuit and light cereal gently balances. Touch of juicy mango lingers on with no alcohol or flaw.
In the mouth it's incredibly flavorful for its size and one hell of a great representation of the hop. Tons of passion fruit, meyer lemon, honey, biscuit, black pepper, soft mineral and light guava all come together in a soft, gently, tightly effervescent package that is well-attenuated yet generously malty. No pine, alcohol, resin, doughy yeast or flaw. This brewer is really hitting his stride with the hoppy stuff. Almost everything is absolutely top-notch.

32ounce growler, looks like an orange smoothie. 3 finger creamy yellow white head. Can smell the grapefruit from about 3 feet away. has a pepper spiced aroma, bites with grapefruit, clove, grapefruit, tangerine. very little carbonation, thick, smoothie like. I'm not a fan of this style of beer but the flavors are nice. you get an acidic grapefruit skin with sourdough bread, milk, yoghurt, finish is lingering tangerine.

Very cloudy. Kind of dark. Head fades fast. Looks oily. The aroma is nice. Clean pineapple and tangerine. Very juicy. It has a very dense oily flavor. The bitterness is really strong tasty beer. Too NEIPA for me

4 oz. draft at the brewery. Appearance is a hazy orange color, with lasting white and solid lacing. Aroma is citrus, peach, and tropical sweetness. Flavor is same with medium body, soft carbonation and sweet Citra character in the finish. The Citra hops shine bright in the IPA.

4 oz. draft at the brewery. A hazy yellow beer with a small white head. Aroma is very much orange, pineapples, and maybe fruit cocktail juice. Taste is also pineapples, mango, orange, and a mildly hoppy finish. Dry and well balanced with some juicy texture. Real nice.

32 oz. growler, thanks to AdamChandler. Typical hazy IPA, thin lasting white head. Aroma shows pineapple, mild grass, great citrus. The flavor is bold citrus, subtle grass, and pale malt hints. The fruit influence is nice with a subtle amount of hop oil to give a slick texture. Nice IPA!

Growler filled today at the brewery. Very hazy, it's more of a milky orange with a 3 finger solid white head. This smells really great. it has a mango, grapefruit and orange peel aroma. Has a thick mouthfeel, oily finish. Taste is really similar.
