A New England or East coast IPA made with generous amounts of flaked wheat, rolled oats and a ridiculous amount of American and New Zealand hops. The body is made of a natural protein haze from the unique grain bill. The nose contains notes of citrus and tropical fruit. Extreme hop profile with out your typical hop bitterness

Pours a hazy orange color with a creamy white head that quickly fade. Tangerine and grapefruit notes on the nose, and that follows on the taste, with the added bonus of some mango and passion fruit. Really nice.
The mouthfeel is medium and per the style. This is a nice hazy, if a bit “by the numbers.” Glad I had the opportunity to try it.

I got a can of this beer from my good friend and old neighbor from the 'Wego. It was an overprimed can...unfortunately. it poured a hazy orangish with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had bright citrus notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with subtle stone fruit citrus presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation....had to let the veer sit in the fridge for a while to Decarbonate. Overall it is a decent beer.

Taste like a citrus and grapefruit juice bomb that finishes a little bitter. This is not super hazy but more cloudy. Good mouthfeel with a crisp finish. Overall, this is a very enjoyable beer to drink. Although, there are better ones of this style I wouldn’t mind seeing it again.

Taste: citrus, juicy hops, grapefruit, some bitter bite, yeast in the end of pallet. Same with the nose. The hue of orange juice, mostly opaque, smaller head and lace. Medium/full body. Zesty and hop forward. 35 IBUs

Canned 10/26/17; drank 10/28/17 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque dull orange/yellow appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice white head; decent lace.
Orange citrus, dry grass & faint cane sugar notes in the nose.
Soft, medium mouthfeel.
Orange citrus flavors up front; dry grass & faint pine notes on the finish.
The nose & mouthfeel are spot on; it's a bit dry on the finish, but these guys aren't far off from NE IPA excellence. I'll be keeping an eye on them...
