"Why don't you guys brew IPAs?!" This is the question that we get on a daily if not hourly basis in the tasting room at our brewery. Our answer? We do, everyone just drinks them too quickly so we never have them on tap. That being said we decided to try our hand at one of these newfangled, hazy, juicy, New England Style versions. We brewed this beer to essentially be orange juice. It was brewed with a mixture of English Malt, Oats and Wheat for a soft elegant mouthfeel and then hopped to hell and double dry-hopped with some of our favorite varieties. A touch of fresh squeezed orange juice and zest at the end of boil adds an even softer mouthfeel and more notes of OJ. It's what you want.

Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a super nice looking hazy paper yellow to pale orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head that slid off at a moderate pace. Some lace ran here and there.
The aroma carried a nice smooth to juicy setting of orange pulp and rind playing with a little bit of some grassy notes and a nice settling zestiness for balance.
The flavor leaned towards the sweet side initially and developed a nice juicy to zesty quality playing in the all around makeup of the taste. Aftertaste was juicy and zesty shaping around the orange pulp and rind.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good, perhaps just a touch under but a tad more than a bunch of other New England styled IPA's. ABV felt as projected. Nice zesty crisp and juicy finish.
Overall, extremely nice AIPA well worthy of having again.
