Inspired by Killington's World cup, this is also a New England style IPA. Bursting with tropical aroma and juicy flavor. Citrus with subtle pine notes.

Poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a semi-cloudy hazy burnt orange to yellow color topped by a finger's worth of white foamy head sliding off fairly quick. Some messy lace.
The aroma had some soft sweet orange pulp and rind balanced by some bittersweet pine. Soft touches of lemon nearing on the back end.
The flavor was moderately juicy sweet with a bitter citrus rind-like quality hitting in the balance. Slight aftertaste of orange, lemon and pine.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping quality about it. Some distracting bitter harshness develops but isn't burdensome. Good carbonation and ABV. Semi-juicy finish with some bitterness.
Overall, pretty nice IPA somewhat of a cross between a New England styled one and an American one.
