New England IPA

One year has come and gone and we are bringing you a special version of our best-seller Nectar of Happiness to celebrate our anniversary. In addition to the trusted Citra variety, we have added a New Zealand hop called Superdelic — a modern variety with a distinctive flavour of red fruits, sweets, citrus and tropical fruits.

For thirteen years we have been exploring flavours across the beer world with you – and this year we have prepared a trio of anniversary beers with a transparent label and a name starting with “13 Years Of”. And since our most popular beer in a long time is Nectar of Happiness, we couldn’t leave it out of the celebration. 13 Years Of Happiness is a special anniversary version of this our flagship New England IPA, which traditionally builds on American Citra hops – a variety that delivers aromas of mango, citrus and tropical fruit. But this year we’ve partially replaced Citra with New Zealand Superdelic hops, which add notes of red fruit, candy, citrus and tropical fruit. The result is an even fruitier, smoother and juicier version that takes Nectar one step further. Full body, pleasant bitterness and intense aromas make this NEIPA a worthy toast to our 13th anniversary.

Hops used: Flex Extract, Superdelic, Citra Cryo

Murky pale golden color with medium white head.
Aroma: pineapple, papaya, passion fruit, blood orange, nectarine.
Taste: tropical juice, papaya, passion fruit, pineapple, nectarine.
Medium body, moderate carbonation, moderate bitterness.
A tad bit more of a nectar, a tad bit more of a hapoiness, great again.

The classic Nectar experience. Med-high bitter, med sweet. Med oatiness, but mainly shitloads of juicy, fresh hops character, lots of tropical and citrusy goodness, light dank. Very good.
