Pressed for Time
Sebago Brewing Company - Tasting Room at the Brewery

This brewery consistently delivers exceptional beers. This NEIPA is no exception. The aroma is a captivating blend of orange and citrus, with subtle undertones of pine and floral notes. The palate echoes the aromatic profile, showcasing a vibrant citrus character alongside resinous pine. Tropical fruits provide a supporting role. The finish is refreshingly clean, with a satisfying bitterness characteristic of the style. Another cracker from this brewery; I'd happily order another pint.

 

 

 

 

From a 126 oz. can dated 08/21/22. Sampled Oct 30, 2022.

It most definitely is a hazy pulpy looking orange color under a modest and lingering white head. Opaque.

The aroma is all about oranges, nectarine, and tangerine with a lower profile bready cereal grain.

Medium, smooth mouthfeel.

The taste is at first sweet and orangey. Then the bitterness kicks in at the finish. Yet it also seems clean. Very much tru to the style.

Draft poured into a plastic patio glass, at Portsmouth Gas Light Grill. Perhaps the plastic glass altered the taste a bit. Expecting better flavor. Nice haze, head, and lacing. It was a decent NEIPA, and will try again.

Sebago has pulled out a real change of taste in Pressed for Tine and we love it! Its smooth medium bodied IPA, nothing negative in its presentation. There us a little juiciness but the sharpness of the hops though is intense- we are talking a really bitter flavor that that carries through the entire glass. We liked that a lot! A great ale for summer and beyond.

 

Pours cloudy bright orange gold color, 1 finger head, nice silly lacing. Aroma is faint with sweet citrus. Taste is pleasant with orange creamsicle notes, but not that sweet, very ephemeral. Feel is soft and fizzy, no bitterness. Nice NEIPA and a nice hop bill but lacks character. Reminds me of Sam Adams NEIPA actually. Still a good choice when out at a bar.

 

Brewed with cascade, el dorado, and Idaho 7 hops.

Really solid neipa from Sebago! Worth a try.
