With the New England summer fast approaching we release Tiny Chicken, another edition in our Small Bird Series of lower ABV, hazy pale ales. Deceivingly diminutive in name, Tiny Chicken packs a hoppy punch with a powerful combination of Galaxy and Amarillo. Engaging aromatics pop with notes of bright citrus and peach, while flavors of tropical fruit, melon, and orange sweep over the palate in refreshing waves. Finishing crisp and dry with slight earthy/spicy grain character from the use of locally malted wheat and Danko rye.

Can at L42 - big thanks to Leighton. It pours cloudy yellow - gold with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, fresh, creamy, juicy, ripe fruits, orange creamiscle, mango smooth and some greenness. The taste is smooth, restrained bitterness, quite green, grassy, weed, orange creamsicle, dank, minerals, straw, pithy citrus and a touch of soap. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Well rounded. Good hop juice.
