Elixir is our flagship double New England IPA that has been in development from the very beginning, and our favorite to brew (and drink!) With copious amounts of CTZ, Eureka!, and Citra hops, this beer pours a deep hazy golden color and boasts flavors of candied orange, rich stone fruits with some dank resinous notes to round it out. Perfection in a glass.

New brewery , new beer …a ton of very highly rated beers…and then you look closer and see a LOT of ballot box stuffing creating those ratings …

Chilled 16oz can poured into a pretentious beer glass..Hazy yellow liquid, one finger white foam cap, streaky lacings

Aroma is citrus, oranges, lemons, tropical fruits

Taste is citrus, oranges , grapefruit, bit of dank

Smooth mouthfeel, hop kiss on the finish

Good beer

This is a top-notch NEIPA. Pours a bright orange with a thick white head. Smells of citrus and tropical fruits. Tastes the same but with some dankness from the CTZ (or their yeast strain). It has all the feels I am looking for with a NE-style DIPA.
