New Decade is a celebratory Tree House Double IPA brewed to mark the end of a tremendous decade and the start of a new one. We pushed the body and alcohol in New Decade more than we typically do to accommodate a huge hop charge. Upon opening a can, New Decade hits you with an immensely juicy aroma. It pours a dazzling cloudy yellow color in the glass and emits aromas of fresh-squeezed orange juice, mango pulp, overripe stone fruit, and honeydew melon. New Decade encompasses a full decade of experimentation, learned hands-on brewing experience, and a relentless pursuit of the perfect glass of beer. We hope that it can contribute positively to your New Year celebrations as we wipe the slate clean and start fresh, not just for a new year, but for a New Decade.

More harsh than the typical treehouse. Still great but had a bite.

Breaking all Tree House "rules" with this one. Beer is in a 16 oz can poured cold into my snifter. the date stamp is 12/27/2019. The can has been in my fridge since I got it and it just never made it to the top of my drinking order.
Onto the sampling.
the beer pops open and citrusy notes fill the air immediately, take that fresh beer!
I pour into my glass and the beer is a cloudy orange creamsicle or butterscotch pudding color with a 2cm creamy bleached white head foaming up and resting effortlessly on the top of the beer. This foam fades slowly to a sturdy and clingy edge layer with the thinnest of surface layers remaining throughout the sampling.
The aroma is fruity with orange and tangerine and a bit of honeydew as well. Not something I pick up a lot, but the honeydew is definitely in this one. I dont get any real malt character and the ABV is well hidden too.
First sip reveals a medium body and soft creamy mouthfeel. Gentle rolling carbonation and this beer is very easy drinking on the physical traits.
Flavor is more of the nose predictions with orange, melon and a little pineapple with a bit of acidity on the swallow. I dont get any alcohol on the flavor either and only a little bit of herbal bitterness on the finish.
This is quite a nice double IPA event 6 months after purchase. So dont drainpour those slightly older treehouse brews!
