Collaboration with Bissell Brothers. The World at Large is an 8% Double IPA brewed with Maine’s own Blue Ox Malthouse Yankee Pils alongside Vermont-grown flaked oats and wheat from NEK Grains. Dry-hopped in two rounds with Citra, Nelson, Dolcita, and Peacharine from Freestyle Hops.
Expect rich stone fruit and tropical character layered with citrus, lemon-lime zest, and candied fruit.
The can features artwork by Maine native and Burlington local Jackson Tupper.

Hazy, dirty gold color. Smaller head that leaves a film of minute bubbles on the surface. On one side there's a blanket of lace. Spots elsewhere on the glass.
The smell is of black pepper and slightly sweet tropical fruit. The bitter hop dominates.
Higher carbonation but with a richer body, so it appears well balanced. The flavor is also more balanced than the smell. The initial malt features Juicy-fruit/cotton candy flavor but it isn't overly sweet. The hop comes in, particularly at the swallow, but more as a spice than a spice bomb. Overall, this is a smooth and deceptively drinkable beer.
