This hazy, double dry-hopped Imperial IPA is loaded with tropical and citrusy hop aroma and flavor. A real treat for IPA-lovers seeking a complex, lively flavor profile and fruity aroma to write home about.

Picked-up a four-pack of cans at Curtis in Cohasset for about fifteen dollars. My second brew from these guys. Decent brew.

Pretty good mosaic and citra showcase. Lots of fruit flavor, strikes a nice balance between sweet and bitter. Juicy citrus primarily with some pineapple. Some bracing caramel as well.

Excellent, hazy, citrusy DIPA. Pretty smooth and easy to drink with great orange and pineapple flavors during and after. Definitely up there as one of my favorite NEIPAs.

Acquired at the local at a very reasonable price. Grabbed for the cans dated 3/27/19 (45 days old) and I was very surprised. Cloudy gold look, Nasal cleansing aroma in allergy season was refreshing. Great hop taste guided with the citrus flavor makes this an AIIPA a 5 star winner. Great feel on the pallet as you chug a very COLD. It defiantly competes if not surpassing the high priced local competitors. DRINK COLD and always try to drink local and fresh.

Make N.E. the beer capital.

I've been on a NEIPA kick since going to Treehouse recently, and this filled the hole for me. Glad to see this in my hometown. Definitely not a treehouse beer, a lot lighter and less chewy but similar ABV and reminiscent flavor profile. Nice and pineappley, it reminded me of southern hemisphere hopped ipa's i've had like Green by treehouse and reciprocal by bissell.

Poured from a can dated 3/21/18 into the pint glass.
A - Dark straw color, hazed but translucent, active carbonation feeds a thick white cap
S - Dried pineapple, orange rime, pine needle, grassy herbal thread in there as well
T - Candied fruit, sweet malts, spruce tip. Earthy hops and semi sweet malt
M - A bit prickly, sweet start then a bitter wave rolls through. Finish is a touch sweet
O - A better beer cold, as it warms the sweetness take the front seat. Alcohol is well hidden, this offering is very good
