We had the honor to brew a collaboration with our friends over at Outer Range Brewing Co. and they both turned out AMAZING! We both brewed two different IPAs using Nelson Sauvin & Styrian Dragon hops. We made a New England-style IPA and Outer Range made a West Coast-style IPA.
With our version of this beer you can expect a tropical oasis of aroma to flood your senses as soon as this beer is opened! This beer has flavors of tropical fruits and hints of white grape that tickle your taste buds. Then to round out this hazy creation, there is a nice full mouthfeel that gets all of the aromas swirling together throughout each taste.

16oz can served in a nonic glass, canned on 05/14/20.
Look- Hazy golden orange color, decent off-white head that recedes quickly to a thin foam cap, pretty nice lacing . Slight carbonation streams visible.
Smell- Citrus (lemon, lime and grapefruit), mango, pineapple and peach, green grape and gooseberry, grainy malt, some faint pine and floral hop notes.
Taste- Similar to the aroma. Tangy citrus and green grape/gooseberry, a bit of tropical fruit, sweet malts with a slightly bitter hoppy finish. Well balanced.
Feel- Medium bodied, pillowy soft and slightly sticky. Medium/light carbonation on the tongue.
O- A really solid take on a NE hazy using Nelson hops. Worth giving a try.

Orange juice-looking body; thin, patchy head. Fresh citrus aroma; orange; hint of white wine. Excellent taste; bread crust and biscuit base supporting a bright and sharp citrus flavor; grapefruit rind; dry white wine; peppery with a nice boozy edge. Heavy body; sharp and acidic with an associated dryness aided by a relatively high ABV.
This collaboration brings interesting elements to the senses. The looks are excellent, body-wise, but the lack of any decent head is disappointing. Things pick up with the aroma with its combination of citrus and white wine elements. The taste marks the beer's high point, sharp, tangy and very flavorful. The body wraps everything together with beautiful mouthfeel. All things considered, a damn nice beer...
