Our brewers developed this recipe for more than a year; playing around with yeast strains and hop combinations in search of a smooth, juicy offering that pleases palates. With VT IPA they found the perfect balance of tropical fruit and citrus flavors through a heavy dry-hopping of Citra and Amarillo hops, which give distinct tangerine, mango, pineapple and grapefruit character.
The juicy hop profile is complemented by the grist, which features a heavy hand of flaked oats and aromatic Munich malt to deliver a smooth mouthfeel and hazy appearance. What sets this beer apart --aside from the soft bitterness-- is the introduction of a new yeast strain that provides the beer with more neutral notes and juicy esters that enhance the hops.
Enjoy it fresh, enjoy it often.

355ml bottle from Stop & Shop, Quincy. Drunk at our apartment in Dennis Port, Cape Cod. Pours a hazed golden orange, good foamy white head. Aroma of pine, sweet malt, orange. Continues to taste, quite bitter for an NEIPA.. some grapefruit and mild pulp. Ok overall but a touch disjointed.

Part of their IPA 12-pack mixed case. Hazy golden-orange colour with a big bubbly-soapy white cap, decent stay and some foamy lacing spots. Pink grapefruit aromas with the orange juice base and some tropical fruits coming out later. The taste starts on a tangerine note, with some good citrus zest that grows, creating some bitterness and dryness lingering. Not a bad juicy IPA with enough dryness int the end.
