Green if you want restraint and drinkability,
True Colors if you want richness and staying power.
Both are beautifully balanced NEIPAs with identical IBU counts, but Tree House's version lands lighter on the palate—it's the beer you reach for on a Tuesday. Phase Three's sits slightly fuller in the mouth despite only 0.5% more ABV, suggesting a maltier backbone underneath those juicy hops.

Green
Green drinks like a conversation starter, not a statement. There's this immediate brightness—citrus and stone fruit that doesn't grab you by the collar but settles in friendly. The 7.5% ABV lets the hops whisper instead of shout; you taste actual restraint here, which is rarer than it should be. Clean finish, no sticky aftertaste.
True Colors
True Colors has more shoulders. It's broader across the palate, with a thicker mid-body that makes you aware you're holding something with substance. The hops land in similar territory—tropical, slightly resinous—but they're mounted on something more substantial. Sits warmer in your mouth, lingers longer. Feels earned.
