Amazing all day Apa - smooth and balanced.
Tremendous nose
Finish is equally good
Notes of citrus
Draught @ Malt&Mold. Hazy pale yellow with foamy whitish head, faint lemon peel aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter lemon-mango-pineapple, thin body, long finish. Quite flavorful.
Can, by way of a trade. Cheers Jeff. Fully hazy, milky straw colour. Thin and dense, lasting, fully lacing, bright white head. Nose has a soft oatiness. Lime rind. Pineapple slices. Ripe mango. Hint of something like kiwi fruit. Taste has a light sweetness, and is crisp, squeezed lime bitter, in pretty good balance. Light to medium body. Low carbonation. A tad dry, too. More of the lime gives a clean and fresh finish.
Can. Strong citrusy hop aroma and flavor. Dry, barely sweet. No off-flavors. Appropriately bitter aftertaste. No off-flavors. I really appreciate the relatively low 5.2 % ABV.
can. pours almost cloudy light yellow, gold tint, with a small white head offering good retention and lacing. very fresh citrus, even some tropicalness with these non-tropical-type hops, super clean and lightly fruity yeast action. moderate carbonation, light body - thin; smooth and balanced tropical-citrusy finish. very solid and balanced five per cent hoppy pale ale.
Draught. Pours hazy straw with a medium, foamy white head. Aroma is lime, pine, light mango, and bread. Taste is much the same, but features some lemon and some kiwi. Slightly bitter. Just a hint of pepper. Light-medium body. Medium carbonation. Crisp but slightly fluffy mouthfeel.
Tap at Tired Hands Fermentaria, Ardmore. Hazy yellow colour, small white head, lace. Crisp citrus, grapefruit, lychee in the nose. Medium-bodied. Grapefruit, orange peel, tropical fruits in the flavour. Nice dank ipa, not too juicy.
On tap At Hulmeville Inn. Hazy straw gold color. Virtually no head. Sweaty citrus hop nose is subdued. First sip is tart breads malt with notes of yeast and kiwi fruit. Slightly sour middle has citrus and pine. Lemon and sour orange finish. Very crushable.
ABC Roxy Benefit: Poured a hazy golden with white head. Aroma is nice tropical citrus hops. Taste is nice blend of hops, citrus grapefruit, balancing malt, fruit carries through in the finish which I dig.
On tap at The Jeffrey, NYC. Pours cloudy gold with a white head. Aroma/taste of resin, tropical fruit, peach, pineapple, grapefruit. Moderately bitter finish.
Can from a good friend. Pours hazy light gold. Aroma and flavor are juicy tropical and citrus notes, pale malt, soft chewiness, good hop bitterness level for a pale, soft sweetness, and just great balance. Medium body.
From a can. Pours opaque gold with a fizzy white head. Tastes like grapefruit hops, resin, grassy, and bready malt. Light/medium body and carbonation. Smells like resin, grassy, bready malt, and grapefruit hops.
Can. Pours murky pale yellow with a medium, creamy white head. Aroma has sweet malts, citrus, grapefruit, peach, oats, resin. Medium carbonation, fine dry and quite creamy mouthfeel. Flavour has sweet malts, doughy, resin, grapefruit, citrus. Lingering bitterness. Very nice.
Aroma: sweet, fruity, perfumey; Appearance: hazy orange pour with thin white head; Taste: slightly bitter/fruity with malty finish; Overall: good but pales in comparison to Hill Farmstead APA.
Magnificent and only 5% so you can have a couple of them...
Can shared by beerboxer. Pours hazy straw with a thick white head and a tropical fruit aroma. There is a hearty pale malt flavor with actually a pretty dry finish. Not a typical NE style, yet really tasty with lots of fruit. Nicely balanced.
16 oz. cans. Poured hazy orange with thin off white head, sheets of lace. Soft orange, tangerine and pine needles. Juicy and I like it. Amazing APA. Could crush these nonstop.
From tap; hazy golden with medium white head; aroma is hoppy, pine, some citrus, floral; taste is hoppy spicy, citric, piney, low spicy bitter finish; texture is thin with medium carbonation and a medium body; nice and drinkable but I don't get the hype
Tap. Aroma of citrus, pine, underripe orange zest. Hazy golden with white head. Taste is light bitter and dry. Light body, light oily feel and citrus finish.
Can. Completely cloudy pale yellow pour with white head. Aroma has tons fresh tropical notes. Some apricot, pineapple, mango and peach. Taste is mild and well balanced. Ends with more fruit. Very pleasant. Light body. Medium carbonation. Well composed

Draught at Mikkeller & Friends.
Hazy amber colored with a small white head.
Fruity aroma of hops, citrus and exotic fruits with notes of pine needles.
Fruity flavor of hops, citrus, coriander and grass.
Hoppy finish.
Managed to get a can whilst I was in Copenhagen. Lovely seasonable beer. Very pale, hazy beer. I could crush loads of these. Was kind of disappointed due to the hype this beer has had in the past but it is perfect for what it is, a session beer.
Growler from the Fermentaria. Nose intense melon rind, citrus rind (really heavy tangerine), some mango, hoppy, resinous, mineral, bg fruit. Ugly pour cloudy yellow with white, head large and sudsy bright white, foamy lace. Taste dry, light-medium resin, big wheat and cracker, some alcohol stiffness and a little nice grit, tangerine less with some wood, oatmeal/cereal grain, cracker, faint melon. Only medium bitterness and very repeatable, clean as a whistle. For all the hopping, the wheat/oat character is the signature, though, especially as mouthfeel: fullish body is creamy-smooth and perfectly carbonated with just a faint little bit of grit. Yeah, it’s the flagship for a reason. [2017.10.05: 4.0]
2 canettes de 16 oz partagées lors d'une dégustation entre amis. Arôme: Odeur d'orange avec une pointe de pin. Apparence: La couleur est blonde opaque avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d'un mince col mousseux et d'une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût d'orange avec une pointe de pamplemousse et de pin. Durée moyenne de l'arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement onctueuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Agrumes en arrière goût. (Rating #7868)
My Bottom Line:
This super citrusy NEPA also builds sand, wood and bitterness in a most fragrant setting.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A sheet of foam protects the cloudy yellow.
-That nose is something else. Loads of tropical fruit!
-Bitterness is prominent, managing to balance out the somewhat doughy mouthfeel.
-That body must be full of oatmeal or some other softening agent.
Can.
On tap at the brewery. Pours out a hazy cloudy yellow top with a white head. Nose is Citrus some grass spice along with pine. Taste is Juicy Citrus notes plenty pine needle and some spice.
Can (473 ml), shared with BeerGolem! Thanks to Samuel for this one! Hazy orangey with a medium white head, good retention, leaving moderate lacing. Aroma is burst of oranges, onions, resinous hops, mangoes and mild spicy cereals. Taste is juicy and oranges forward with dank oniony notes, resin, a rather lean malt backbone, mild cereals spiciness and low bitterness. Medium-light body. Moderate to medium carbonation. Juicy mouthfeel. Oranges and oniony finish with soft lingering resinous notes. A great New England style Pale Ale with loads of dankness and oranges. It’s really easy drinking even with the juicy mouthfeel. Lovely.
light and hazy - new england style but not too acidic or a fruitbomb. well balanced and refreshing.
