Can to tulip.
Appearance: glossy yellow to copper semi-hazy color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: piney to floral to pineapple and an even lighter note of some melon-like hops; light clean biscuity malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine juicy sweet to semi-bittersweet juicy quality; finishes semi-juicy through some pineapple and melon hop tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, somewhat sessionable; good smoothness about it; nice low carb and a low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: nicely done NEDIPA worthy of returning to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: pale yellow cardboard haziness with a two finger white frothy head which took it's time to dissipate and once it did light lace formed

Flavor: meshed the prior noted aromas together in a fine sweet juicy to bittersweet juicy quality; finishes grapefruity to melon-like and juicy
Texture: light to medium bodied - maybe a touch closer to medium; somewhat sessionable; good smoothness; nice low carb, and low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: I would definitely welcome this beer again.

Like many other beers similar this beer has aromas of citrus, resin, malt and dust. Flavors are similar to nose. Bittersweet and almost a hint of savory. Good body and okay carbonation. Easy drinking.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: burnt orange thick haziness with a two finger white foamy head which settled off nicely to leave some light sliding lace
Aroma: pineapple in the beginning and a lot of it then opens up more into a blend of pineapple, tangerine, and some grapefruit; light clean biscuity malts
Flavor: wraps up the prior noted aromas to a nice sweet to bittersweet quality; finishes with the pineapples and tangerines
Texture: light to medium bodied; sessionable, some smoothness and a little bit of hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: a nicely done NEIPA worth coming back to.

Aromas are citrus, malt, overripe stone fruit, overripe pineapple and wet grain. Flavors are similar to nose and lean sweet. Similar but not quite as good and a little bland. Okay beer.

Pours murky bronze into a willi. Bright white soapy head with excellent retention recedes leaving gloppy lacing. Mango and melon aromas. Medium bodied with sweet guava and melon front to back. Medium length tropical fruit skin and tangerine finish.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: glossy burnt yellow to orange color with a slim cap of a little white foamy head which dissipated nicely but didn't leave any lace
Aroma: mangoes, oranges, lemons and a touch of peachy hop tones; light clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet to sweet semi-juicy quality; finishes with the mangoes and oranges in the lead
Texture: medium bodied, slightly sessionable; pretty darn smooth while it maintains keeping a beer-like quality; low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: a very nicely done NEDIPA I would return to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: pale dark orange close to brown color with a finger and a quarter of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange juice, slight nectarines, mixed citrusy tones with some piney hoppy tones; light clean malts
Flavor: meshes all the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet semi-juicy to almost candy-like quality; finishes orange juicy, and nectatrine-like
Texture: medium bodied, between being sessionable and being a sipper; good smoothness about it but also some hop assertiveness ever so slightly
Overall: for the most part, this is a well brewed NEDIPA I would welcome again.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: stuffy pale yellow to dark orange color with a two finger white foamy head which tapered off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: big pineapple sweet and light tart notes; subtle melon and piney hops underneath then some light clean malts
Flavor: seems to kick out that "melon" scent I smelled and keeps the pineapple basically with the pine and it's a pineapple-y sweet to a piney bittersweet quality; finishes the same way with a touch of dryness
Texture: medium bodied, leaning to being a sipper; some smoothness and a little bit of dryness nipping the tongue
Overall: nicely done NEDIPA I would come back to.
