Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a warm off-white bubbly cap, decent stay and some foamy lacing left. Big, juicy, orangy aromas at first with some mild grassiness that eventually comes out. This continues into the taste with some nice Orange Crush touch. The grassy hops cuts the sweetness in the finish, with some good citrus zestiness, that balances and lingers. Even getting a tad vanilla in the nose after breathing. A real nice juicy NEIPA that has a pop-orange side to it, and the other - being dry-bitter, zesty.

Slightly unfiltered, a very light yellow colour with a frothy-bubbly white cap, good stay and foamy lacing spots left. Quite an amazing nose for a 3.5% ABV, with notes of citrus, apples, pears and herbs. Expecting a big dive in the taste, but no - all found in the aromas with a floral touch, all fitting together. Reminds me a lot of their very good Blonde Ale "Blonde de la Rive", but a Lager?! Does not feel that way, as the finish is longer for the style. Wow! Refreshing, tasty and not feeling Light.
