Fenway Froth
New City Brewery

A: crystal clear; medium gold in color; 2 finger finely pored ivory head that receded to a thick rocky cap;

S: onion and garlic;

T: follows the nose from start to finish, but a little less intense; moderate bitterness at the end;

M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; dry finish;

O: considering that this is single hopped with Ekuanot, I didn't expect the aroma or flavor that I got; OK beer, just not what I expected;

Dorsnt tasye likr an ipa. More like a lager. Love the theme. Chuggable. Dece.

A crisp beer that’s tasty but not overpowering. The combination of Golden Promise malt and Ekuanot hops deliver a relaxed session IPA that’s easy to sip all day long. Perfect for those long afternoons at the game.

 

 

Noticed this apparently new product on the shelf of a Western MA package store and purchased a 4-pack. Hard to miss noticing it given the very attractive and unique packaging featuring a colorful baseball scenario. This is the first canned beer I've had from New City although I've enjoyed a few of their draft products. The single malt (Golden Promise) and single hop (Ekuanot) featured in Fenway Froth blend together to produce one of the tastiest Session IPAs that I've come across - definitely not lacking in body and taste. The can says "Extremely sessionable all season long" - I'd agree except I'd substitute "year" for "season". All in all, discovering this product may prove to be my best hit of the season.

 

Recently stopped by this brewery and tried their Fenway Froth. Their literature says that this is a single malt and single hop beer featuring a hop I wasn't too familiar with (Ekuanot?). Pours slightly hazy and straw colored. Aroma is strong citrus and fruit and the flavor is there to match. Smooth but pretty light bodied, a beer I could drink 6 or 7 of no problem. A true crushable session IPA! Definitely will be looking for other beers in the future that feature this hop, great flavor.
