Can via the brewery subscription. Aroma is fruity. Stone fruit. Slightly vinous edge. Hazy gold. Thin foamy translucent white head. Citrus with a herbal dank streak. Verging on vinous. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation - a light prickle to it. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Interesting NEIPA... a little bit different.

440ml can. Murky yellow, small white head. Aroma of pineapple, mango, peach, grapefruit. Taste is slightly sweet, very juicy, tropical, peach, pineapple, mango, melon, grapefruit. Medium bodied, soft. Seems much more intensely hopped than their usual hazies and it's all the better for it, probably my fave from them so far.

440ml can. Murky golden, white head. Aroma of ripe peach, grapefruit, also has some potent dank weedy notes. Taste of peaches, grapefruit, herbal, again some surprising dank weedy notes I wouldn't have normally expected from these hops, finishes with pithy hop bitterness. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation leaning towards the heavier side.

Hazy white tinged gold. Foamy slightly translucent white head. Medium bitter. Tangy. Stone fruit. Resin. Herbs. Peripheral sherbert. Medium bodied. Verging on oily. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Enjoyable well balanced graceful NEIPA.

Can via the brewery subscription. Aroma is earthy, woody. Fruity and vaguely vinous. Hazy light orange. Foamy white head. Medium-heavy bitter. Big dollop of resin. Hedgerow. Vinous. Latterly develops light underlying fruity sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Nice to get a not a NEIPA from this lot. Punchy and makes the most of the hops.
