Imagine if a West Coast IPA procreated with a hazy New England IPA. That’s kind of what this is. Soft and hazy like a NEIPA but she still hits you with some hoppy bitterness. Double dry-hopped with Citra, SImcoe and Vic Secret.

On tap at Noble Shepherd Craft Brewery in Bristol, NY.

This one pours a very, very hazy golden and milky yellow color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.

This smells like weedy, grassy, and almost chive-like bitterness, with sweet grapefruit, guava, orange, and tangerine.

This is just barely West Coast-like - it's one of the haziest beers that Noble Shepherd has every produced. There is a bitterness to it, almost chive-like and slightly dirty, with a touch of hop burn, and lots of juicy delicious hop character other than that.

This is medium bodied, with a slight burn and bitterness on the back end. It's still pretty drinkable.

This isn't their best IPA that I've had, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless.
