16 oz can, dated 11/9/20, into wide mouthed glass.
Thanks Evan!
Deep gold, very hazy, somewhat juicy, tall creamy cap of 1 finger leaving skirts of lace behind, as it recedes to a thick ring.
Aroma is juicy tangerine, tropical orange, wet hop log, mango, pineapple, and starfruit. Very juicy, very nice.
Flavor is noticeably and understandably faded, I sat on this a bit. Brings mostly orange peels and mango, with occasional starfruit and hop dust. Some sweet honey malt backbone but stays underneath the hop assault. A bitter piney finish.
Feel is semi-juicy, semi-creamy, moderately carbonated, with moderate alcohol heat. Resins clinging to the mouth.
Overall, a pretty solid NE IPA that I should have drank sooner. Would definitely give this another whirl sometime.

Poured into a stemmed tulip glass.
Pours a cloudy amber color with a small off-white head. Leaves a fair amount of lacing before settling into a thin ring.
The aroma is all malt with a faint hint of fruity hops. Muted. Doesn't smell at all like an IPA.
The flavor follows the nose. Sweet malt with some citrus.
The feel is medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Oily and astringent with some alcohol warmth.
Overall, this is a weak IPA. It's simplistic, and the malts completely dominate the hop character. Not worth your time.

Can from the Packie
Lightly hazy golden orange color with a good sized bubbly white head. Earthy grassy citrus and pine with a sweet bready malt and a gritty mouthfeel. Light astringency and alcohol. Yup New England style IPA.

Old school Copper and amber with golden highlights. Bubbly and creamy, off white foam keeps it's head up high. Lacing for days.
A nice aromatic mix of honey malt, tropical red fruit sweetness, pine and citrus.. seriously is a very deep nose.
Taste and feel: crisp, clean, sharp malty bite, both sweet and earthy. Balance of the natural effects is right on target.
Light and airy feel, turns medium bodied with a complex malty ride and muli faceted hop complexity. Leafy pine, earthy citrus, grounding pine again with crispy caramel malt balance. This is a highly drinkable situation.
I really like the mildly bitter, dry leafy hop effect and cooling malt current together. Local and fun! Monadnock style!!

Damn, this is good
L: hazy but not opaque, golden honey, finger and a half head
S: slight onion, maybe some mango, crisp
T: dances on the back of the tongue; fruity, but not overbearing, with a decent amount of hip bitterness on the back
F: solid carbonation, consistent throughout the drink
O: Great beer
