This juicy blast of double Dry-hopped deliciousness is packed with Denali, Simcoe and Citra hops. With tropical notes of pineapple complimented by retrained bitterness and a smooth, soft finish this DIPA packs enough punch to rally the fleet and may leave you paddling upstream.

Great Juicy double that is full of flavor! This Calusa New England has a slight bitterness unlike many of the others. Very enjoyable and very much recommended.

16 ouncer purchased at the source in Sarasota yesterday...bottom of the can tells me it was packaged 2 days ago...fresh and tasty.
Fully clouded, yellowy squash soup in color, and leaving some light and fine scattered lacing.
The nose is loaded with ripe pineapple juice.

It is a very dull, murky pineapple juice color. The head was a dirty white soapy one that dissipated very rapidly.
The aroma is fairly fruity with a bit of piney/grassy dankness and some yeast. Some mango, grapefruit, passion fruit, and peach/apricot.
The flavor follows suit, but probably a bit better. A pungent, earthy, and spicy hop flavor up front with prickly pineapple, mango, apricot, and really pithy grapefruit. Then some green pine/herbal flavor with a solid bitterness.
Body is much lighter and easier drinking than the appearance would suggest. A very prickly, biting feel from the hops and yeast, and only a touch of chalkiness in the end.
