My first time having anything from Barrel Brothers.

Canned on 11/12/21, so just about a month old at the time of tasting.

For a hazy beer it looks the part, perhaps a touch lighter and clouded than I’d expect, even.

Hops on the aroma are overshadowed by what I consider a more “worty” note. Slightly vegetal, mostly inoffensive.

The vegetal green pepper and parsley character comes out more on the sip, with a prolonged finish. Some bicarbonate minerality, which I find in hazy beer generally, and a low bitterness.

I guess the bottom line is, do I like it? As an IPA, and as a NA beer?

Pours hazy, light gold in color with 1/4 inch head. Taste is papaya, mango, and sour orange juice. Bitter, medium body, with moderate carbonation. Makes for a solid New England ipa. Hard to believe this is non alcoholic. One of the better versions of the style that I have had.
