You might want to sit down for this. A double New England IPA for when you are looking for that one beer to deliver you to your destination. This New Zealand-hopped version of Destination leans a little softer and sweeter, loaded with Rakau, Superdelic, and Nelson Sauvin for vivid grapefruit, gooseberry, and lush fruit aromatics. You might find it hard to stop at one; maybe just get off at the next stop?

On tap at Container. Pours a slightly hazy golden blonde with a white head. Lots of gooseberries and wine gummies on the nose. Flavour has a pretty strong wine gummy character, berries, almost chewy light caramel malt base. Juicy and fruity. If you told me this was an unfiltered West Coast I'd believe you. Very solid.

473mL can, pours a cloudy golden with a medium white head. Aroma is fairly muddled, bringing out a bunch of melony hop tang, some earthiness, a touch of vegetal notes, and light citrus. Flavour is surprisingly bright and refreshing, with big melony hops, juicy tropical fruits, moderate sweetness, and thankfully minimal chalk or other such grittiness. Not very hazy-like, which is its best feature. Good.
