Can at home, from Craft Central.ie, 01/01/2026.
First Scope of '26 ... let's boost!
Hazed orange to golden topped with a lasting just off white head.
Nose is bitter orange, grapefruit, pine needle, grass, mixed tropicana.
Taste comprises bitter orange, mango flesh, pine resin, melon, mandarin, guava.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come resinous hop bitterness allied to an imposing boost level.
Tidy QIPA ... punchy, ballsy and doesn't run overly sweet.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some juicy topical/vinous notes and a semi-dry finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical/vinous notes and a semi-dry finish. Body is full for style with good carbonation. Good imperial NEIPA with tons of juicy citrus notes and tropical/vinous notes from the NZ hops.

Good but the price point is pretty high on this one and the return in flavor while good, seems unbalanced

From beerolution april 2024, canned in 2023, time to open it for the 24th december, not disappointed, a solid and tasty neipa, really citrus and bitter, syrupy, oat and malt with some herbal and tropical note, a good juice of hop and cereal, during this cold day, no snow but a real sensation of winter

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a creamy-frothy warm-white head, good retention and some nice creamyish lacing streaks. Tropical fruits in the aromas with some citrus notes, and grassy-woody hoppiness. A juicy mouthfeel with some nice bitter-dryness building. Citrus zest flavours with the tropical fruits blending well. An easy-drinking, kind of smooth Triple NEIPA with good tropical notes balanced by the citrusy and grassy-woody hops.

Hazy, golden colour with a tad orange hue, a warmish white head, good retention and full sticky lacing. Big fruity aromas with lots of citrus (mostly orange juice), then, some tropical-stone fruit notes in the background (mango, peach, etc). Very juicy in the mouthfeel with a nicely, building dryness. Fruity flavours of orange juice again, with other citrus zests adding a certain zing to it all. Quite a bill of collaborations, and with a band that I did buy their demo cassette (mentioned in the description), opening for Niagara back in the day. A beautiful, juicy Double IPA with lots going on, but all well-balanced with a good drying end.
