16 oz can. Nose of weak Citrus fruits, resembling orange. Flavor follows with a very slight herb in the finish. Body is the lighter side of medium with some soft lingering herb after sip. Decent enough.

Manchester draught, 8/23/25.
Very hazy, bronze-maize-golden. Small, white head.
Rich and earthy with spice and tropical fruit. Smells like Comet or Vic Secret or Cashmere. Yeah, def Cashmere. But none of those are in here. Go figure.
Juicy melon, sweet citrus and ripe mango with earth and black tea alongside goodly mineral. Soft body becomes crackery and quite dry. Pretty good bitterness for the style. Unique and interesting with good malt depth.

Clear brass. Small, white head.
Earthy, crackery, yeasty. Dry pepper and dried herbs from the hops creates an all-around dry nose. But quite clean and the focus on yeast is nice.
Surprisingly malty though it's slow to emerge, crescendoing in the honey-like finish with cracker and yeast strongly represented. Bitter herb undercurrent throughout keeps it dry and balanced. Very, very easy drinking. But more substantial than it first seems.

Manchester draught, 8/23/25.
Clear beer. Small, white head.
Not a gross WC. Woody cedar and coconut with white bread and a clean yeast. No sweat, no resin, low earth. Low acidity.
Big, round, sweet, deep malts up front with sourdough accents and berry and coconut. Wow, that's very malty which the nose doesn't prepare you for. Not that bitter, just Krush-like berry acidity. Very little Simcoe. Just a woody afterthought. But clean and pretty polished if maybe a touch too malty. Tough to complain about that when it's dry. But the new school WC approach leaves it surprisingly dangerously low in bitterness.

Certainly looks the part. Heavily hazy with a small, white head.
Juicy and very fruity with tropical fruit and light lime prominent. Clean, nothing weird going on, no excess sugar. Just a very polished, classic NEIPA nose.
Earthy and quite dry but with just enough malt up front to carry the juicy, fruity, highly mineral-forward hops. Some melon and mild coconut. Dry throughout, clean, with low but ample bitterness. Not life-changing, but just solid all-around and I love the dryness and reasonable bitterness.

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma is a wonderful blend of blackberry, blueberry, and strawberry. Flavor has the same fruit but also a stern, sharp puckering tartness after the sip. Some sharp acid as well. Damn that is tart!!

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma shows pineapple, peach, honey. Flavor is the fruit with a mild lingering honey finish. Proper body and texture for the style. At 8.6 %, no alcohol found. Good.

Can (5/9/24) pour from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Cloudy orange-brown with light sparkle, thin head fading to a ring and trace lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, mango, grapefruit. Taste is strong, sweet as aroma with honey, sweet malt. Smooth, frothy texture, medium bodied, average carbonation and finish as taste. No bitterness here. Mild alcohol astringency. Hop candy indeed--definitely on the sweet side. Drinks a lot lighter than 8.6%.

Pours dark amber with a thin tan head. Immediate aroma of pine and resin, some lingering grapefruit. Taste has grapefruit oils, some stone fruit, more resin. Palate has some overripe tropical notes, mild booze, resin. Eh.
