Lines Of Symmetry
North Brewing Co.

Pours a hazy light orange with soft head.

Smell is juicy and crisp with notes of citrus, mango, pineapple and some melon, sweetness and orange sorbet.

Taste is soft and juicy with a hint of booze. Notes of mango, citrus, pineapple with hints of elderflower and grapefruit rind. Soft, moderate bitterness.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy, well carbonated.

Overall, a really nice DIPA.

Pours a hazy, bright orange coloration with a large, fluffy head. Smells of light biscuity malt and juicy, vibrant tropical/citrus hops, with distinct notes of passion fruit, lighter tangerine and dank accents. Taste is an excellent balance of very light biscuity malt and juicy, dank, tangy hops, with fruity tropical, citrus, stone fruit and berry notes of passion fruit, honeydew melon, tangerine, peach and just a hint of strawberry. Finishes with a light bitterness and some passion fruit, peach and dank accents lingering in the aftertaste. Soft, pillowy mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

This makes for a great New England IPA with an interesting hop combination that works out very well and gives a much more broad variety of flavors than you might expect from the hops used, ranging from tropical and citrus to stone fruit and red berry notes, with some dank accents as well, while the tangy passion fruit is pretty dominant here, with a great, soft and pillowy mouthfeel as well.

440ml can. A juicy but dank New England-style DIPA. It’s a brash, highly alcoholic, overripe tropical fruit smoothie. Body is very full and mouthfeel is rich (plenty of oats!). Although not particularly dry, it’s decidedly bitter. Alcohol burn is evident throughout.
