New England style IPA from an American craft brewery I hadn’t yet heard of before, can at De Kantien, thanks to the Gentse Biervereniging for sharing. Snow white, open, mousy ring of a head on a milky yolk-yellow beer with vague greenish tinge. Aroma of lime and even lemon flesh, pineapple, green bell peppers, yoghurt, yellow curry powder, dough. Sweetish onset, pineapple effect with a sourish lime- and kiwi-like edge, soft carb; dry in its nature, with a powdery mouthfeel but nevertheless bread-pulpy and doughy malt body, soaked in a lot of tropical, citrusy and somewhat dank hoppiness, remaining powdery as well as juicy but soft in bitterness. Ticks all the boxes for NEIPA and even if this is not my preferred style, admittedly this is a very successful example of it.

Damn backlog, could've been first. ;-) Drank at the same time as Alengrin, though. ;-)
Cloudy yellowish beer, practically no head. Aroma: all lactose, vanilla, passion fruit, sweetish impression, pastry notes, sugary. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bit sweetish, sugary, peach and apricots, candy, lactose. Aftertaste: pretty sweet, passion fruit, citrus, bit lemony, some grapefruit, soft bitterness, more fruit. Very nice!

(473ml can from Beergium) Pours very murky brownish-orange with an average white head. Notes convey fairly light flavours overall, some citrus peel and leafyness, vague ripe fruity notes, a little sweet malt, some slightly rubbery or synthetic hop character, powdery/chalky yeast, the sweetness dies down in the finish and there's some lightly to moderately bitter multivitamin into the finish. Light body, rather soft carbonation. Maybe the can's not in the best shape but this felt a little mild and limp, lacking bright hop character.

Can from Beergium. Hazy yellow with white head. Raw, rubbery mosaic hops. Wet rubber, pineapple and chalk. Not a fan.

No head left; muddy pineapplejuice colour. Green pineapple, citrus, unripe mango, passion fruit, sugarbeets. Bitterish, grainy and hoppy, and a truckload of bitter(ish) exotic fruit. Non-grain kernels, also bitterish. Quite slick, hopoils, bit low on the carbonation. Pretty decent, like it. Thanks to Bart & Vincent for sharing!
