Can ordered from Left Field Beer. Hazy waxy pale gold. Thick creamy white head. Aroma has vanilla porridge to the fore, with a light prickle of hops (citrus, herbs, vinous edge). Flavourwise it's got an inner bitterness with sour edge. This sits astride sweet porridge. Thick. Creamy. A delicate soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Super soft and comforting NEIPA.

Draft at the brewery.
The beer poured hazy and orange in color, white head.
Pleasantly dry and grapefruity. Light passionfruity notes.NZ hops all over with some grapes and white wine notes in good balance. A pleasure to drink.

440ml can. Minimally milky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, firm, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, snow white head. Citrusy fruity, mildly grassy and piney, hoppy aroma, minimally spicy, pale malty background, notes of lemon, some grapefruit, a touch of yellow stone fruit, peach, nectarine. Taste is crisp, almost a tad aggressively bitter, citrusy fruity and piney hoppy, spicy, pale malty basis with very low residual sweetness, rather condensed notes of grapefruit and lemon, a touch of yellow stone fruit, more mineral than zesty bitterness; a bit "wider", more oily, citrusy fruitiness in the middle part, rather zesty and minimally muted bitterness is better embedded as well; even more harmonious and homogeneous in the finish, the pale malty basis gains minimally biscuity aspects, some sweetness, even a touch of grape sugar.
Oily texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously moderately dry palate, medium to fine, dense, soft, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well crafted, intense, I'd probably like a tad more caramel malt in the mix - pretty decent.
