This pleasantly surprised me. It's hoppy with a subdued bitterness, but a bitterness all the same. Definitely juicy. Definitely hazy. What surprised me is it's so sippable, not one to gulp or drink quickly. I say that's due to the oats and wheat in the recipe. Recommended.

I am a fan and a regular of Tighthead. I think this AIPA is among the best of their generally wonderful offerings. Have had it at the brewery, this review is of a 16oz can, canned 2 weeks ago. Smell is pit fruit and fresh fields. Mouthful maybe a little too fizzy for the style. But it's okay. Taste is killer: peach up front, hint of malty sweet base, tropical things happening...then comes the lovely realization that the tongue has been dipped in hoppy bitterness. The next sip provides a sweet, peachy reprieve to the bite, followed by hoppy bitterness, requiring another peachy sip to offset the bitter, etc. Highly recommended. Great job, Tighthead!

Very solid brew here. Refreshing and juicy and (in my opinion) the perfect summer time type of IPA. Would buy more if available.

I'm not used to this NEIPA look but this tastes Peachy and fresh, it should as it was canned on 5/25/17. No bitterness, just great juicy IPA.
A four pack of 16oz cans for $13.99 means I can't drink it everyday but I'm going back for more

Tasted in a 12 oz snifter from draught at Firkin on May 5, 2017. New England style IPA brewed with oats and wheat keep the hop compounds in suspension and give it a hazy look. Hopped at a rate of 3.5 lbs/BBL with very little bittering hops. Heavy whirlpool and dry-hopping give it mild bitterness with big hop aromas and flavors. Notes of juicy citrus and tropical fruit.
