Triple dry-hopped triple IPA

This beer dials in at 10.3% ABV, with a fruity, fluffy body that will put a smile on your face. It tastes and smells like hazy pineapple clouds, orange creme popsicles, and the first days of Spring.

Definitive Brewing Company IPA - Triple New England

Dank fruity hop sweetness in the nose.

Pineapple and Sage. Full burst of big fruit-forward hop complexity. Bright red fruits, earthy, dry pineapple and orange rind. Sweet and earthy dry, yet juicy body makes you wanna take it for a long ride.

Bright hazy golden orange pour with finger of fine bubbly white head.
Citrus, pineapple on the nose - so much tropical fruit/fruit salad; notes of pine, resin.
Taste is citrus hop forward - grapefruit, ripe pineapple, orange and orange peel - slightly resinous and piney hops with a boozy bittersweetness.
Full mouthfeel - moderately brisk carbonation - sticky and bittersweet tropical fruit, pine resin. And just a touch (pleasantly) boozy.

16oz can dated 10/30/20.

Pours cloudy yellow with a spongy head of white and plenty of lacing throughout the glass. Candied pineapple, peach, and orange in the nose. Medium bodied with a sticky, sappy mouthfeel. Zesty, juicy citrus on the palate with minimal malt or bitterness. Honey-drizzled pineapple, grapefruit, and peach. Finishes a bit sweet with minimal booziness and lingering tropicals.

16oz can poured into a tulip

A- pours a murky orange color with a one-finger foamy white head that has good retention and leaves some lacing behind

S- bold and bright tropical hops on the nose with zesty grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, mango, passionfruit and green melon. Grass and piney undertones, huge nose

T- zesty an pithy grapefruit and tangerine up front, followed by some leafy green notes that add some fresh cut grass. Mid-palate gives pineapple, mango, and overripe melon. The finish gives more zesty citrus and a hint of booze and sweet malt

M- medium heavy bod with moderate carbonation leads to a foamy mouthfeel that turns into a creamy, slightly warming finish

O- bursting with tropical notes while remaining highly drinkable, outstanding

A: Pours a yellow-orange color with 2 fingers of head that fades down to a thin cap that leaves good lacing

S: Huge tropical fruit notes up front along with some citrus and dank. Pineapple leads the way

T: Follows the nose. Starts off with a wave of tropical fruit and citrus and then goes into a bit of the herbal and dank notes. Light-moderate bitterness. Finishes with lingering tropical fruit, citrus rind, and dank

M: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A bit of heft

O: A super tropical TIPA that definitely shows off the triple dry-hopping. Hops on hops on hops. Makes for a good sipper with the 10.3%. Very dangerous
