32oz growler filled at the Growler Garage. Pours a translucent brownish orange color with an inch of frothy white head. Some lacing. Aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. Mango, pineapple, grapefruit, and a hint of banana. Slight floral soapyness. The taste is grapefruit and pineapple with some tangerine, lemon and a hint of pine. A bit boozier than expected. Finishes with some breadiness and citrus hops. Medium bodied with a slightly oily mouthfeel. Overall, a nice find in the land of great IPAs. Worth seeking out.

Had two pints of this at Vermont Tap House in Rutland. Very refreshing beer with a unique taste. I like hoppy beers, and this was definitely in that arena. Also nice to have another great microbrewery next to Rutland.

Just had my first at the Tap house in Rutland. I love it when a new beer hits the market and it's way better than expected. Great flavor, maybe the best IPA in the state of Vermont (Excluding Heady and Sip o sunshine ) Try it , you will not be disappointed. Great finish for a Hoppy IPA

What a rare find! A new brewery showcased on tap at Pearl Street Beverage's wicked growler bar (shameless plug).
Pours a cloudy orange/blonde hue with a one-finger head into my glass. At 7.2%, it's nothing to scoff at.
Strong citrus blast in the nose! Mango and grapefruit come to mind. I wasn't expecting that!
First sip is full of juicy citrus notes with mango and grapefruit. I'm thinking a hybrid of sorts.
Mouthfeel is boozy with lingering mango and grapefruit notes.
An amazing first impression from Roaring Brook Brewery and another variant of the Vermont IPA/DIPA.

Classic but not simple. This glass goes from full to empty, fast.
