7.5/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Can from the brewery. Aroma has zesty citrus and stone fruit combined with a grassy edge. Hazy pale orange. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Tangy but sweet citrus. Underlying light-medium bitterness. Juicy and sugary with a pinch of herbs. The bitterness becomes more evident into the finish, as does the booze. Medium bodied. Slick. A tad oily. Flat-average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Deceptively sweet start before packing a punch.

Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma of berries, fruit and vanilla with a funkness to it and dry spice. Hazy blood orange. Frothy translucent white head. Medium-heavy sour. The vanilla and spice take the edge off. And as well as sourness the the berries and fruit provide some sweetness. Salty element in the finish. Light-medium bodied. Slick verging on oily. Average carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Juicy stuff. Less sour than I was expecting, which is an observation and not a criticism. Two thumbs up.

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Can from the brewery. Big aroma drifts over from the opening can. Sherbert and citrus. Hazy amber gold. Big fluffy frothy white head. Light bitter. Then develops a zesty sourness. Hints of sweetness. Sherbert effect. Stonefruit bitterness and malts close proceedings. Medium bodied. Slick, pithy. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish. Hmm.. described as a Hazy West Cost IPA and added as a Hazy/NEIPA? There is fruity sweetness, it tempers the bitterness buy for me this is a low key West Coast IPA. The reference to 'Hazy' is misleading in terms of style.

7/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 8
Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma is grassy with underlying stone fruit. If all rather low key. Hazy gold. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Light-medium bitter with underlying stone fruit sourness. Into the finish it develops light citrus syrupy sweetness. But bitter throughout and eventually quite tangy. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation which emphasises the dry finish. Someone astringent.

0,44l can from the brewery. Canned 26.11.2020, bbe 26.05.2021. Hazy yellow beer with stable white head. Beautiful! Aroma has fruits, citrus and grain. Flavor has same elements, juicy fruity notes, grain and grass. Good, tasty, juicy but also dry and bit bitter grainy beer.

7/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8
Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma has pine and underlying stone fruit. Hazy pale orange. Foamy translucent white head. Initial bitter hit, which follows through into the finish. Tart stone fruit edge. At first there was a juicy sweetness underneath but this soon retreated. Medium bodied. Slick but pithy. Average carbonation. Long dry astringent. I guess this is a Hazy IPA rather than NEIPA as it's not overly juicy. Although melon and coconut are referenced on the can and are not really in the mix but to add a slight touch to an otherwise punchy IPA

Can from the brewery. Aroma has sweet stone fruit and underlying resin. Hazy pale orange. Frothy foamy white head. Medium-heavy bitter. Zesty citrus edge, which develops syrupy sweet streak, however the sourness retains an edge. Resin seeps in through the cracks. Medium bodied. Slick. Verging on creamy. Flat-average carbonation. Long dry finish. A pleasant NEIPA.

7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma is pretty low key - pine, an initial sweet fruitiness and an earthiness. Hazy peachy orange. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Medium bitter. Piney. Resinous. A syrupy sweet, if not overly so, stone fruit taste then develops. A crisp bitter edge throughout. Medium-heavy bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Decent stuff. A spiky TIPA - the bitterness and sweetness complimenting each other.

5.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 6 Overall 7
Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma has hazy pine over sweet fruit. Spice in there too. A light haze to the golden body. Light-medium bitter. Sour edge which develops a sweet element. Am not keen on this latter development - it's somewhat sickly especially when the sweer/sour combine. However the dry palate dominates so I am getting dry and overly sweet. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation. Dry finish. Just not keen on this - it's kinda disagreeable.
