Taster at brewery. Pours out like apricot nectar. Sweet, fruity aroma. Taste is sweet up front, a little juicy, bringing some bitterness at the back. Very juicy.

Thanks, Chad!
Got this one from Chad on a recent work trip. Had never heard of this brewery and actually ended up adding it on Beer Advocate. Can called for, “Our New England Style India Pale Ale is a fruity, juicy, refreshing hop taste explosion that will leave you feeling like you’re sittin’ on top of the world. This IPA is perfect for letting your Freak Flay Fly.” No mention of hops that I could find.
Poured an amber semi-hazy color with three fingers of frothy-to-rocky white head. Lots of bubble streams coming up along the sides of the glass at a pretty quick pace. Almost perfect spiderweb foamy lacing. Perfect retention. (Sight - 4.75)
Smelled floral, perfume, Fruity Pebbles, orange zest, stone fruit, berry, lemon, lime, dish soap and pine. More of the same from the can. If I’d have to guess a hop, I’d say Mosaic. (Smell - 4.00)
Taste wasn’t quite as good as the nose. Very fruity. Got Fruity Pebbles, floral, perfume, orange zest, stone fruit, berry, lemon, grapefruit peel, lime, pine, dish soap and some peppery spice. (Taste - 3.75)
Medium body. Creamy-to-oily texture. Average carbonation. Juicy finish. (Feel - 4.00)
Was pleasantly surprised with this one. Very good. (Overall - 3.75)
