This dry hopped pale ale contains the same malt bill as classic Fort Point, but with a dry hop of Vic Secret. Pouring a hazy golden color, Vic Secret Fort Point emits herbaceous aromas of lime, and mellow citrus. Strong grapefruit pith & biscuity flavors wash the palate with the familiar smooth mouthfeel and medium body of our signature pale ale.

Another one courtesy of the beer jesus himself, daddy robbie!!! thanks so much for the tick, you know how I love me them fresh ticks and you know how I love them vic secret ipas!!! win win win win...as for the beer itself, a really wonderfully executed vic secret beer. there is definitely the earthiness that I love about the hop and it is masterfully complimented with the sweetness of the fort point base. really washed over in vic secret in such a huge way it makes a man ponder his existence for a moment before gazing off into the sunset smiling.

Pours a turbid straw yellow with hues of orange. Thick tight white foam head. Nose is subdued citrus, fresh baked bread and ripe melon. Taste is a citrus burst. Notes of grapefruit and lemon zest. Nice biscuity layer to break up the citrus that eventually gets smoothed out by notes of melon, honey and tea. Medium to full body and super creamy smooth mouthfeel.

Smell is not crazy juicy but tropical and taste of honey. This is a good tasting beer and one of the thinner feeling IPAs I have had from trillium. This is good as it won’t fill your belly up but not my favorite beer I have had from this phenomenal brewery.

16oz can dated 4/11/17.
Pours cloudy gold with a large, creamy head. Nice retention a thick ropes of lacing. Pithy citrus with earthy undertones in the nose. Grapefruit with lemon zest and peppercorns. Medium bodied with a creamy, almost fluffy mouthfeel. Zesty citrus on the palate with zero malt and a solid bitterness. Grapefruit and lemon pith abound. Finishes with lingering citrus pith.
Not the most aromatic Fort Point version but the Vic Secret is a nice change of pace.
