Description
Foam. It's always been an unconscious calling like drifting into a cumulus cloud bank on a sun-drenched day, or collapsing in a frothy curl of a breaking wave. Foam; it's natural beauty that rises up and is here and gone in a moment in time. I have spent my working life in foam, beer foam that is, brewing beer, conjuring up mixtures of malt and hops to ferment into a crowning moment of beer. Great beer has always sat under foam. Foam. It's not one ingredient that gives stability; it's many interwoven to create a structure of strength pouring out visual excitement. As I sit for a time, I enjoy that moment. All that remains is the lacing that adorns the empty glass and the making of a great memory. Until next time, see you under the Foam...

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical hops notes and a semi-sweet finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones with some tropical notes and a semi-sweet finish. Body is full for style with good carbonation. Enjoyable double NEIPA with juicy focus but not as creamy as the style may suggest.

IPA glass showing turbid pale straw with two fingers of clean white foam.
The nose shows moderately intense notes of pineapple and kiwi
The palate is well carbonated and light bodied but foamy. Light apple notes upon a strong adzuki malt back bone followed by more apple on the finish.

473ml can. Hazy, dark yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity and slightly piney, hoppy aroma, wheaty and oaty malty background, notes of lemon, tangerine, some pineapple. Taste is mildly bitter, citrusy fruity and minimally piney hoppy, slightly wheaty and minimally oaty malty with some residual sweetness, hints of tangerine, orange peel, some woody pineapple, some citric tartness, mild, zesty bitterness.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, soft carbonation.
Rather monotonous, almost a tad insipid - not really convincing.

Can from my brother: pours clear gold. Grapefruity more than piney. Taste is not very bitter. More new school WC.

On tap at Foam Brewers today.
Poured into a tulip.
Appearance: glossy burnt yellow/orange haziness with a half a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: grapefruit zest, orange peel-ish sweet to bitter with a whiff of pine and a touch of lemon super far down in there
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a sweet to zest quality initially then a rising balancing bitterness slides in underneath; finishes sweet and zesty with a little bit of dryness
Texture: medium bodied - maybe a touch under; between being sessionable and being a sipper; light on the smoothness factor with some dryness hitting the tongue; good low-ish carb and low to medium hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: pretty good NEIPA - a bit different than some others, I would return to this.

Far left draught, 7/9/26.
Armpit! Or if you want to be nice you could say musk melon. Some mineral and fruit salad emerge with a bit of clementine and zesty lime. Honey and white bread-like malts easily balance.
Lemon-lime with sweet, round peach and pineapple. Typical table sugary, flimsy malt quality that I get from a lot of their IPAs which, ultimately, ruins it for me. Hops have some interest, of course, but both breweries can do much better than this.

On tap at Foam today.
Appearance is as shown in the picture.
Aroma: a lemony to peachy to mango-like conglomerated scent with a lil' bit of tangerine-like sort of whiff trying to get in there but just seems so faint then some oaty/malty sweet faintness
Flavor: mixes on up the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet to sweet then bitter sort of quality; finishes somewhat peachy with mango/tangerine sweetness
Texture: medium bodied; between sessionable and being a sipper; smooth-ish - somewhat; good low carb
Overall: nicely done NEDIPA worth coming back to.
