Big thanks to robbie for snagging me a can. Indeed it does take a village...as for the beer itself, a little hop syrupy but remains light and fluffy. Not really a juicy IPA as it were, but probably the best hidden 8.5% from sand city (or any IPA maker for that matter) to date. More of an older school IPA, but extremely well done. Surprisingly light and easy drinking for such a beast. Definitely on the thinner side of the spectrum, but everything in this beer works well for it. Really liked this.

Another winner by Sand City, this one with a great cause to get the brewery tasting room open again. Typical good NE IPA looks with a nose full of pineapple, grapefruit, lemon zest and papaya. Flavor is a mix of tangerine, grapefruit, orange peel, pineapple, graham cracker, toasted grains, light toffee, lots of tropical fruit and nice floral hops notes. Really smooth and enjoyable, it hides the ABV masterfully.
