Can pour into nonic pint glass. Appearance is cloudy orange with tons of effervescent sparkle, 3-finger foamy off-white head (unable to pour entire beer into glass--a little annoying) with good retention and decent sticky lacing. Aroma is strong citrus, light pine and herb. Taste is musky herb, citrus, pine, fruit. Palate is medium bodied with soft, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, above average all around and this was at the edge of its freshness window (3 months old).

Can pour into nonic pint glass. Appearance is hazy orange/light brown with 2-finger width foamy white head after vigorous pour with fair retention, minimal sparkle and sticky, soapy lacing. Aroma is brown bread, mild citrus and melon. Taste is somewhat tart with noticeable alcohol, dark fruit, melon and late brown bread. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, aroma and taste are quite different from each other, which I like, and there's a lot going on in the flavor but I'm not convinced it's all intentional. Beer was bit old (4 months) so probably lost a good deal of its hoppy goodness (and maybe developed something else in its stead). Not altogether enjoyable but, still, points for being interesting and different.

Can pour into nonic pint glass. Appearance is cloudy dark yellow/orange/light brown with a fair amount of fine, dark floaties, tons of sparkle, finger-width foamy off-white head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is citrus and a strong bready/cracker malt backbone. Taste is lemon and orange citrus with late caramel malty breadiness. Palate is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation, light numbing of the lips and alcohol warmth and finish as taste. Overall, this can was elderly (7 months old) so I suspect this was more heavily weighted to the hops in its fresh form. As is, the hops don't stand out relative to the level of malts. Will have to try again at some point.

Can at St Gambrinus: pours slightly hazy with a white head. Aroma is citrus, fruity and the like. Taste is sweet and juicy. Not fulll blown NEIPA.

Wandering through the forest, where I stumble upon a seemingly abandoned cabin. I go through the door expecting Gritty, but discover worse.

Get very tropical fruity flavor. Like I'm on an island in the sun. Hopefully Gritty isn't leering in your window tonight.

Tropical, hoppy. Very flavorful. The beer dances on your tongue.
