One of Trillium's first and still flagship beers, can at pre-Zwanze tasting. Had that formidable 'double' version two years ago so this was one I was particularly looking forward to. Egg-white, lightly lacing, moussy, thick but open ring over cloudy, lemon-yellow robe with warmer orangey tinge. Incredible aroma, bursting with vibrant 'sunniness' of mandarin juice, yuzu flesh, yellow plums, mango, lychee, guava, rambutan, starfruit, soggy biscuit, fruit yoghurt, rhubarb compote. Crisp, extremely bright in the mouth, mandarin and pomelo 'citrusiness' in a most radiant, spritzy way, adorned with softer mango and melon impressions; refinedly but vividly fizzing carb, soft 'bread pulpy' and creamy mouthfeel perfectly embodying one of this style's key features. Ends with a massive amount of again brightly shining - I'd almost say 'blinding' - tropical citrus hoppiness, minneola and yuzu, fresh and completely spotless, adding a soft spicy end bitterness to the whole. This is extremely brightly citrusy, a seething tropical sun of a beer with not one element - even on a 'micro level' - disturbing its glowing shine. Probably the brightest NEIPA I ever had - and in that sense, the best. Phenomenal.
