Welcome to TV Party! An old school beer style gets a new school twist. This pale ale is hazy, juicy and bursting with hop goodness. It's crushable with a smooth finish. It's bold, without being abrasive. It's our kind of party. It's a TV Party!

Hazy yellow. Medium-sized, white head. Citrus and tropical fruits iare n the aroma. Moderate bitterness. Simple but juicy and pleasant taste. A decent one.

16oz can.
L: Opaque, burnt orange colour with a massive head that collapses to lumpy foam and leaves sheets of lacing.
S: Big, bold and long-lasting aroma of seville orange pith and peel.
T: Nicely piney up-front with citrus following. Not juicy - too sharp for that - but has plenty of fruit, mainly oranges. Not getting any tropical fruits. Medium bitterness that gets hot over time.
F: Medium body, acidic mouthfeel that seems a bit thin at times, very filling.
O: Kind of an east coast/west coast hybrid. Not bad for a 5.5% APA but over carbonated for my personal preference and absolutely not “juicy” at all.

The can says "New England Style Pale Ale'. Hazy, honey color with a big fluffy head and lots of lace. Strong dank pine and citrus aroma that is actually pleasant. Taste is more like a West Coast IPA, hoppy and strong grapefruit presence. It's piney but the finish is smooth and fruity -- grapefruit and papaya. Not boozy or overly carbonated.

Picked-up a four-pack of cans at Bradford's in Plymouth, MA for about ten dollars. My first brew reviewed from these guys, but I have had a few others. Mediocre beer, nice price point.

16 oz can from Evan, my main man.

GITM, Fatty! I love this glass.
It has a semi-juicy, but almost west-coast appearance. Honey colored, with fogginess, no creamy appearance. Head is large and in charge, a hand full, and then recedes within a few minutes to a finger and leaves lots of lace in broken sheets.
East coast haze on the aroma - always welcome in this house. Sharp pine and citrus tones, with orange peels, pink grapefruit, orange jell-o, and slight cannabis/herb. From the glass I get more muscat tones, white wine and such.
Flavor is pretty one noted, it's impressively sharp and mostly piney. Yet it retains a soft curve in the bitterness that makes it really easy to drink. Far behind it are a bit of pleasant sawdust and some lemon peel as well. Maybe a hint of grapefruit peel and papaya.
Feel is crisp and sharp, retaining that edge that's in the aroma and flavor. Resins stick around awhile. High carbonation. Low alcohol. No juice.
Overall, an enjoyable little crusher from NY state that tastes better than most 5% IPAs I've had. An 84 seems a bit harsh. I think people are too picky. But then again people think I'm too picky. Different strokes. I just like good beer that tastes like something and doesn't poorly imitate. I'd have this again.
