Continuing the “Examen” series, our rotating New England IPA! This version features two new hops from our Hop-farmer friends in Michigan. Utilizing a double-dry-hop schedule, we get aromatic notes that include up front essences of fruit candy and peach. This beer finishes with a subtle balance of citrus, grapefruit and melon. As always, this Examen pours with a lasting hazy appearance. Enjoy!

Exceptional taste, good smell, washes down smooth as silk and quick. Feel like I could drink 10 and still want one more.

Pours thick like grapefruit juice
Aroma is citrus as in orange and grapefruit with pineapple. Total juice bomb. It’s a full mouthful and slightly bitter but mostly smooth finish. Not as heavy as it looks. Extremely easy to drink. 6.5 abv and 37 ibu’s make it crushable. Nice representation of a NE IPA.

16oz can(1st canning run) purchased at the brewery. Very cloudy orange color is inviting. Nose is citrus(orange and pineapple). Flavors continue the citrus theme with orange, pineapple and a touch of mango. Finish of orange zest and grapefruit rind is very long and lingering. Excellent mouthfeel. After exploring various recipes, this young brewery has apparently settled on this version as its IPA. Good choice.
