ABV: 6.8%

IBU: 35

Ticks: 13

Newly brewed in 2018 with three of our favorite IPA hops, Citra, Mosaic and Galaxy, and dry-hopped three separate times. This New England style IPA pours a hazy straw yellow with a pillowy white head. The tropical punch aroma of ripe mango, pineapple and grapefruit will hit your palette and the creamy mouthfeel comes from a hefty addition of flaked oats as well as lactose sugar.

Sample at The Draft Room. Cloudy yellow-gold color with a medium frothy white head that diminishes gradually to an outer ring. Stringy lacing. Aroma of tropical fruits, grassy hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of pineapple, citrusy hops and malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Can from Craft Brewed. Pours a hazy, murky gold with a finger of creamy white foam. Big pineapple aromas with guava, honey and cantaloupe notes as well. Creamy mouthfeel with more pineapple and pithy citrus. The lactose is evident in the finish with a slimy character that isn't that great to be honest. Relatively sweet with a prickly pineapple green bitterness on the end. Not bad, but would be better without the lactose.
