Until I see Hatchery series #5 on this site I will use this one (#1) to rate it in place of this series. This is so new that I CAN'T FIND IT so I have to rate it due to such awesome hoppy/malt balance and smooth flavor. I have had all of the others in this series except #1. This one is specifically called NE Style IPA by the way.

7/30...pours golden yellow with a slight orange hue. Hefty 1/2 inch of fluffy white foam. Floral notes in the aroma, breads and biscuits. Tropical fruit flavors blended in a light bitter malt. Guavas and papayas sprinkled in. Smooth mouthfeel, clean and fruity. Real good. Bring this recipe back.

A: Hazy deep yellow to light orange color, large off white head, really good lacing

S: Floral, piney hops not much else. Smell is weak but pleasant.

T: I get the nice floral hop bitterness and then a nice malty sweetness to balance it really well.

M: Medium

O: A good IPA. Nothing that sets the world on fire but a good beer.

Poured from a 12 OZ bottle into a pint glass. the appearance is a slightly cloudy yellow color with a large white head. The aroma is sweet citrus hops. The taste is a very nice blend of citrus and hops. great for summertime drinking.

Hatchery Series Release #1 IPA Featuring Mosaic Hops | SweetWater Brewing Company. Poured from the bottle into a pint glass, the head is two fingers thick, with webbed lacing, and a sediment-laden medium gold body.

Smells like fresh and "tropical", as the bottle reads. Slightly sweet malts also make an appearance.

I taste outrageously fresh citrus & "tropical" hops melding with honey biscuit malts. This is astronomically refreshing, too.

Medium-light mouthfeel with mild carbonation.

Overall, Hatchery Series Release #1 IPA Featuring Mosaic Hops | SweetWater Brewing Company gets an overall 4.5. I really hope this goes on to have its own 6 pack release.
