Pours cloudy straw into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Hay, marshmallow and funk aromas. Soft watery yeast and mild citrus front to back and into the medium length finish.

On tap at MBGSF 2018. Pours a hazy caramel color with an off-white head. Tart cherry aroma. Flavor is citric, acetic sourness, but not strongly sour, cherry, raspberry. Very good stuff.

Bottle. Pours faint pink, light head. The aroma of rhubarb, light berry, and sour grain. Taste is extremely light, weak rhubarb, mild berries, drying texture. Based on other beers from this brewery I thought this would be a train wreck. It kind of isn't. So cheers!

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours opaquely hazy golden orange/amber color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice thick soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, white grape, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, white bread dough, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, white grape, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, white bread dough, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine, zesty, herbal, grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, white grape, mango, melon, guava, berry, citrus zest, light pepper/pine, wheat, white bread dough, light honey, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; with a solid malt/bitterness balance; and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Slightly increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and light sticky mouthfeel that is fantastic. Zero warming alcohol for 6.8%. Overall this is a fantastic NEIPA! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with minimally bitter/drying finish. Amazingly soft mouthfeel for the style. Extremely juicy, light dank hop complexity; perfect malt balance, not overly sweet/heavy. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Amazing hop showcase. Being that they usually only make Belgian styles, they really nailed this out of the park.

16 oz can. Hazy golden amber pour with a white head. Floral hop, citrus, biscuity aromas. Flavor is floral and citrus hops, but fairly gentle, with the yeasty flavor mixing in and creating a very soft impression overall. Not quite what I expected, but it's rather nice.

Very nice beer. Aroma is mainly tart and natural strawberry flavor is like nose with some of the rhubarb added but very nicely balanced. The carbonation doesn't negatively affect the sourness and there's just the right amount of sugar in there too enhance things. Body is perhaps just a touch thin but not bad. Excellent finish.

16 oz can from Pennsport. Hard to understand te low ratings. I think this is pretty good. While you would think the cherries would make it too sweet, it actually tones it down a bit. And no this should not be a fruit beer, its a doppelbock. Dark brown with creamy beige head. Aroma is the normal doppel malt sweetness and some cherries. Taste brings some chocolate, dark malts, brown sugar and cherries. Really nice consistency too.
