Neon

◎ Appearance

Neon presents a pale golden hue with pronounced haziness throughout the body, characteristic of the New England IPA style. The cloudiness derives from oat flakes and suspended yeast rather than hop sediment. A modest white head forms with moderate retention and gentle lacing along the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright lemon zest and fresh-cut citrus, immediately followed by apricot stone fruit and subtle tropical notes. Beneath the fruit sits a soft, grainy maltiness from Maris Otter and wheat, while a delicate yeast character adds complexity without dominating. The overall impression is clean, inviting, and fruit-forward.

◐ Taste

Entry reveals fresh apricot and juicy stone fruit, transitioning into tropical fruit notes across the mid-palate. Bitterness remains minimal and well-integrated, allowing the creamy mouthfeel from oats to coat the palate. The wheat and yeast provide a soft, full body without heaviness, while maintaining a smooth-drinking character throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshing, with lingering stone fruit notes fading gracefully. A subtle yeasty warmth remains on the palate, inviting another sip without any harsh aftertaste.
