This easy-going 6.5% New England IPA highlights the lovely Vic Secret hop. Featuring a pleasantly bright tropical aroma with light pineapple undertones and clean notes of passionfruit.

Interesting find. I generally do not rate beers that are, by design, beers I do not enjoy (in this case the heavy citrus and tropical feel). I fet inclined to rate this one as I found it very enjoyable on tap in Wethersfield CT.
Poors a darker Mimosa color like a thin Orange Juice.
Very thin head, white and lacey.
Smells very tropical, light citrus smell. Hints of Mango perhaps.
Taste is shockingly not as sweet as the smell, orange and grapefruit peel are dominant but not in a bitter way.
Good balanced beer that takes me from the frigid single digit tempatures to a warm sunny boat ride in the heat of summer. Give this one a shot at the bar, or if it sounds like your speed I would suggest buying 6.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy bright orange color with an inch of head. Lots of lacing. Light fruity aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. The taste is orange peel, lime zest and some grapefruit. Some floral notes as well as lightly toasted malts. Lime zest finish. Low carbonation with a dry mouthfeel. Worth grabbing again.
