Collaboration with Vitamin Sea
We teamed up with our good buddies, Uncle Dino and The Great Gambino, at Vitamin Sea Brewing to bring you our latest DDH New England DIPA, A Swim in the Park. Come, if you will, and take a dip with us into a luscious pool of dole pineapple juice with a continual spritz of fresh lime juice courtesy of the Bru-1, Bru-1 Lupomax and Motueka hops. We highly suggest you stop treading water, take the plunge and float on over to snag a four pack of this delicious beer because once the hype current hits, this one is sure to drift away!

Got a can of this and some other stuff from Kevin. Was looking forward to it because North Park and haze.

Poured a light golden hazy color with five fingers of rocky white head. Could see plenty of bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass. World-class foamy lacing. Perfect foamy retention. (Sight - 4.75)
Got pineapple, grapefruit, peach, lime zest, lemon, citrus and stone fruit. Just as good from the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Taste followed the nose. Got pineapple, grapefruit, lime, lemon, citrus, pine needle, apricot, peach and stone fruit. Some potent flavors in there, must be from the Bru-1 Lupomax. (Taste - 4.25)
Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, citrusy finish. (Feel - 4.75)
This was an excellent hazy DIPA. Glad I got a can. (Overall - 4.25)
