Wow! This hits all the marks. Great citrus smell and vanilla. Incredibly balanced hop flavors. The citrus and the pine in perfect proportions along with the berry and vanilla flavor. Great body, right amount of oats, slight bitterness on the finish to round everything out. This one is a winner!

Smooth and strong hops. Extremely well balanced. Loved it

Pours a hazy light orange with a 1F head and light lacing.

Smells of floral grassy hops with some citrus and sweet fruit.

Tastes of slightly tart grapefruit, orange , pineapple and mango with a mildly bitter finish.

This is well balanced , well made and very drinkable brew. This brewery has yet to disappoint!

032522 date on can. Opened and reviewed on: 5/25/22

Looks: A white glow in the straw gold color. White fluff head style cap, stays nice and high with good lacing.

Nose: The aromatics of these hops together have a very deep, creamy vanilla orange smell with wild berries, smooth oatmeal in the grains and a tangy nose kick.

Flavor & Feel: The grain bill is very complex and the 20% Oats makes for an excellent fluffy, smooth and soft feel. Not to mention the malty grains base really adds major character to the super orange fruity hop complexity. There's no lack of earthy bitterness either, which rounds out the citrus and cream very well.

Overall: well played BBC! A fine NE big IPA.

IPA - Imperial / Double New England /...

Love the complex grist bill, oats makes it fluffy soft. A very solid malt and grain base. The hops are creamy orange and tangy wild style fruits. Earthy, bitterness within the fruitiness as well. Great taste and very complex. Very well crafted NE big IPA.

Had this before and wasn't impressed, but had no canning data. Now, under 30 days old, trying again, and yup, this is some darn fine tasty stuff from BBC once again. Gotta be the oats, I'm a sucker for that smoothness it imparts. When beer this good are becoming commonplace I'm bound to develop liver issues. Yum.

So tasty, so smooth, almost orangey honey tasting, pretty gold color, kind of a dry after taste,

 

 

 

 

 

16oz can dated 11/19/21.

Pours murky gold with a inch of white fluff. Moderate retention and lacing. Dank and garlicky in the nose. Medium bodied with a chalky mouthfeel. Pithy citrus on the palate with minimal malt and a drying bitterness. Grapefruit, unripe peach, and pineapple pith. Finishes dry with lingering unripe citrus.
