This 6.5 % beer is a statewide collaborative IPA brewed in support of the Maine Brewers' Guild, using local malts and a hop bill featuring Simcoe, Amarillo, Idaho 7, Azacca Cryo, and Ekuanot Cryo. While every participating brewery followed the same recipe, each beer will be unique! A portion of proceeds will be donated to the Guild.

Very faint smell, great taste but flavor comes back late which is weird. Super smooth. The feel is the thing for me :/

Pours a hazy light orange with thick, fluffy head.
Smell is juicy and a bit sweet with notes of mango, melon, blood grapefruit and orange juice.
Taste is juicy and tropical with some sweetness. Notes of mango, melon, blood orange and nectarine. Soft bitterness and some mineral and grape hints on the finish.
Mouthfeel is medium, soft and pillowy with good carbonation.
Overall, an outstanding NE IPA.

Poured into a 16 oz Nordic pint glass canned on 12/21/2020. Pours a cloudy orange with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves plenty of thin streaks of lace with solid retention. 4
Aroma peach, tangerine, melon, passionfruit, and apricot. 4
Taste follows peach, passionfruit, honeydew, tangerine, and apricot really balanced and nice. 4
Mouthfeel is about medium, maybe a little more carbonation than I would expect from the style, maybe a little sticky but not dry, and at 6.5% it goes down plenty easy. 4
Overall this is just nice, nothing dazzling but a rock solid NEIPA. Worth a shot for sure. 4
