Pint can pours with a murky opaque straw and deep gold body that supports a nice white head of foam. The aroma offers up tangy tangerine and mango as well as softer notes of cantaloupe and honeydew. A deep pull brings up juicy orange and a sense of oat. The taste delivers similar notes as soft cantaloupe tussles with brighter tangy tangerine and mango. To midway it becomes sweeter and a little more juicy as the softness fades. The balance and flavor depth are nice.

Juicy, hazy, very bold. A New England IPA from Whales Vagina? I like it.

Draft at Memphis Taproom. Light and juicy. Hazy, pale golden. Fruity with a bit of funk. Almost juicy.

Pour is a hazy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a pineapple and those green grapes you get at the grocery store. Flavor is a mild fruity hop with a barley there bitterness. Finish is clean and everything is gone after the swallow. This was decent but nothing over the top. The fruity hops are there but there is no distinguishing of one particular fruit.

I don't get much of the tropical fruit flavors and I don't know how much it is in the Northeast Style but it is a very nice IPA. Lots of citrus and fresh hops with a hint of perfume enough malt that stand up to it and perfect carbonation and body. Ditto the Finish very drinkable.

On tap at Council, pours a cloudy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out tons of dry and dank hops, with some herbal character and biscuity malt. Flavour is wonderfully balanced, with tons of dry dank hopping and bone dry biscuity malt. The dry hopping really seals the deal here. Excellent.
