Mildly hazed (getting hazier as it pours), caramel-amber colour with a frothy-bubbly white cap, average stay and still lots of foamy lacing. Fruity aromas with papaya and other tropical fruits. This continues in the taste, milder with hints of grassiness. The dryness in the finish is not over strong. Hints of citrus zest eventually show up, but mostly a tropical fruit Nano NEIPA.

473mL can. Pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma has roasted coffee, toasted white bread, a bit of green pepper. Flavour has white sugar, lightly toasted bread, residual roasted coffee. Nose is better than the palate; palate was too sweet without much to balance it out.

Second Sour Pineapple-Coconut beer of the night (the other being from (LTM). Lightly hazy, golden colour with a fizzy head that disappears quickly, leaving no lacing. Big coconut aromas over the milder pineapple notes. The sourness comes out in the taste, not puckering but watered down, still lingering the whole time. The pineapples are touch stronger, but the coconut take a break in the back. Kind of a nice, refreshing Piña Colada-like beer for summer.

Can: Poured a slightly hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some floral hops undertones and some residual sugar notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some floral hops undertones notes and some residual sugar notes and a light bitter finish. Body is full with good carbonation. Well made NEIPA but could have benefits from a smoother mouthfeel.
