Lots of sediment floating around. Aroma is mostly citrus rind as is the taste. I'm starting to see a trend with "newer" school ipas being much juicier. If this was in its own category as old school new England, I could see the score. But today's neipas are just juicier and much more palatable and have more depth than this does.

Lightly hazy light gold color with a bubbly white head that slowly recedes. Solid bready maltiness. Citrus earthy tropical hop aroma and flavor. Pretty decent brew.

Milkshake cloudy with a white-hued dirty gold color. Foamy, but small, head. Good lines of lace (a blend of rings and streaks).
Weedy hop nose. The malt is neutral pale with a light sweetness.
The taste is dryer than the smell with a creamy pale malted barley. The hop isn't as much bitter as it is mildly spicy. Rich body and flavor, lower carbonation. Long biting finish and aftertaste--white pepper.

Writing this beer a few days after having it on tap. One of the better NE IPAs i've had. Very hazy and juicy. Juicebomb is the right description. Fortunately, the hops balance it out pretty well. Very refreshing and easy to drink at 7.2%. I'd prefer a bit more balance either a bit less juicy or heavier bitterness in the hops, but for this style it was still top notch. I happily ordered two.
Nose: Don't recall exactly - 4
Look: 4.25
Taste: 4.5
Feel: 4.5 Creamy and full but lacked a bit of balance that some of the citrusy west coast IPAs do really well.
