Really nice flavors and mouthfeel. R Shea has put out some really nice brews and this one is quite good. Stands up to some of the better offerings. Recommended.

In a serious breach of protocol, R. Shea went straight from no Mutant to Double Mutant IPA.

This pours very New Englandy (yellow, cloudy, nice head) and it adds a big whiff of a high malt and alcohol profile along with the requisite hops bomb. The taste is hugely bitter while being very malty too. Nice mouthful. My sample is about two weeks old.

Highly recommended. This is yet another New England IPA that works. For me, the style produces way more winners than losers and this is a really good one. It is worth seeking out.
