8.3/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 8.5 Flavor 8.5 Texture 8 Overall 8
Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: super thick orange haze with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which trailed off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange, pineapple, grapefruit and piney hops with a light biscuity-like clean maltiness
Flavor: great blend of the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet cohesion; finishes orangey, pineapple-y and grapefruity sweet
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; clean smoothness - nothing distracting; low carb and low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: very nicely done NEDIPA well worthy of returning to.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark orange to ruddy red color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet peachy to pineapple-y and mixed citrusy notes with a little bit of piney hops in there; light caramel and/or biscuity malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet quality flanked by a little melon sweetness; finishes pineapple-y and mixed citrusy
Texture: medium bodied; this is a sipper; good smoothness with a medium to low hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: somewhat a cross between a West coast styled DIPA and a NEDIPA, I'd come back to this.
