Whistling Up The Wind is a bold East Coast style IPA brewed to 6.5%. One that is hyper hazy and thick. This is a that fits that modern milkshake style approach to IPAs.
Using Oats and Wheat, in tandem with Talus and Ekuanot hops, this is a beer that brings aromas of fruit and booze, as well as flavours of peach and passionfruit.
It is said that whistling at sea brings bad luck to fishermen. The simple act of pursing your lips and chirping out a tune can summon up storms and serpents from the deep. Superstitions like these are still respected today, they are ways of working passed down from generation to generation.

Opaque and golden, with a creamy head that settles into a ring on the glass. An inviting, fresh, citrusy aroma featuring passion fruit and other tropical fruits. The mouthfeel is velvety—surprisingly light, smooth, and juicy. Flavours include pineapple, peach, passion fruit, and citrus zest, balanced by pleasant maltiness and a hint of pine. There is a light bitterness reminiscent of zest and pine. Highly drinkable and refreshing.

440ml can gifted by the brewery. Hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of orange and grapefruit, passionfruit, pine resin. Taste of grapefruit, passionfruit, peach, a little bit of coconut cream, piney hop bitterness to finish. Medium bodied, smooth.
Wasn't sure about this one at first but definitely grew on me. A well balanced IPA.
