This hazy, New England IPA uses pilsner, white wheat, and oats to give it a smooth, hazy base for the Citra Hops to take the stage. A great mouthfeel due to the lactose addition lets Citra dominate without much maltiness present. Featuring strong flavor and aromas of citrus notes of grapefruit, lime, and passionfruit this New England is not to disappoint.

Sample at Daily Growler UA. Hazy golden color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to a film. Short strings of lace. Grassy hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, grapefruit and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a lingering citrusy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a relatively clear gold with a full finger of foam that lingers. Big pungent grapefruit, mango and strawberry aromas. Smooth with a bright white peach and muscat note. Very light on the palate, low carbonation and almost a jasmine tea-like watery quality. Low perceived bitterness on the finish. Lingering fruit. Really nice flavors, but a bit thin for the style.
