Can poured into becher pint glass.
Appearance: transparent yellow color with a quickly dissipating little white head, concave sliding lace
Aroma: strong oily hoppiness, some grassy hop character, sky clean malts
Flavor: oily grassy sweetness blending with the clean bready malts nicely, quick oily to malty aftertaste
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability, oily/grassy finish
Overall: I added it as a "cold IPA" to this database because the brewer calls it a "cold IPA" but 'cold IPA' to 'IPL' is practically like saying "po-tay-to" to "po-tah-to" and "to-may-to" to "to-mah-to." Whatever, I guess, it's a beer tick.

Can from the pantry at the Hilton in Burlington enjoyed from a plastic cup in my room. Mostly clear light gold color with a thin white head that slowly recedes. Bready crackery earthy hint of lime. Decent beer.

Pint pours a clear gold, fluffy whitehead. Nose has some malt, honey, lightly floral. Flavor follows. It's simple but well made.

16oz can pours a murky dark orange with a big finger of white head. Cans grew on me over time. Nose has dried herbs and citrus peel, some soap, some grist. Some booze and green grape. Gooseberry and orange schnapps in the mouth. Citrus and spruce. Some paper. Oily, full bodied finish.

Can (7/24/24) pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Hazy yellow-orange with nice sparkle, big head with excellent retention and nice rings of lacing. Aroma is strong grape, lemon. Taste follows aroma with late pine. Smooth, frothy texture, lively carbonation and finish as taste with late biscuit. Pretty good pale.

Can at the cabin in NH. Pours clear yellow-gold with a fizzy white head that fades quickly. Medium sweet flavour with notes of simple white bread, cereal, hints of hay, biscuit. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet finish, more bready pale malts. Simple, drinkable enough.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white head with little retention recedes to mottle surface. Mango and passion fruit aromas. Thick with caramel, pine and treacle front to back. Lasting pith finish.

Draught at the brewery, 8/14/22. Moderately-to-heavily hazy, brass-bronze-golden. Small, somewhat dense, white head. Strong yeastiness showing big fruity esters. Some light pine asserts itself, with orange juice and moderate honey-like malt. Soft and juicy but with a bitterness above most NEIPAs lending a piney bitterness alongside the honey, orange juice and big yeast fruitiness.
