Can. 2nd anniversary edition of Little Willow's first release, according to the label. Happy anniversary, Little Willow! :) Color: Very hazy orange, white head. Aroma: Tropical fruit (mango, pineapple), hoppy. Taste: Sweetish tropical fruit ((over)ripe mango and passion fruit, overripe pineapple), grapefruit. Over moderate sweet, moderate bitterness. Over moderate grapefruit-like bitterness at dry-ish finish. Just over medium body, average carbonation. Nice one, although on the sweet side for me.

Can. Simple but great label. Color: Very hazy orange, white head. Aroma: Hoppy, grassy, fruity hints. Taste: Hoppy, over moderate bitterness and sweetness. Very smooth, creamy. Wet grass, leaves and some citrus fruit. Long lasting dry-ish and bittery finish, grassy with notes of orange. Medium body, average carbonation. Less fruity and less sweet than most nowadays NEIPA's, fortunately. Enjoyable.

Can (12/29/21) pour from Liquor Junction, Reading. It's an opaque black (dark brown at the bottom of the glass) with lazy sparkle, finger-width beige head with good retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong sweet malt, chocolate and creme. Taste is strong sweet malts and late bready sandwich cookie. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with smooth texture, average-to-lively carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, the sweet malts overshadow the cookie and chocolate aspects. Too carbonated for the style. Looking forward to other offerings from the brewer.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thanks Tom. Aroma is Cocoa or cocoa powder. Flavor has moderate amounts of chocolate, weak roast, soft/ subtle crushed cookies. Body mostly full with a dry roasted finish. Good!
