We tapped into a style that several of the collaborating breweries are masters of, and with all those hops in the mix, it only made sense that we brew a New England IPA. Coming in at 8% ABV, Eight-Bit is as soft and juicy as you'd expect from this beloved sub-style, with the several hop additions bringing out stonefruit, tropical notes and a hit of citrus coming through from the addition of orange peel.

On tap @ BPBW, Saturday session. Quite pleasant NEIPA, although still believe that the West Coast's the real coast - at least IPA-wise.

RB Backlog. Spruce, apricot, thyme, floral and underlying tropical fruit notes, grapefruit coming through with some warmth. Only light sweetness, builds up a little with more resinous notes. Tartness starts to play with good bitterness.

Draught @ Fox & Hounds, Sønderborg. Pours hazy sark straw with stable white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with notes of yeast and mild touches of malt. Bitter flavour of hops and citrus, with notes of needles and sweetish touches of fruit and malt and yeast. Fruity and needlelike aftertaste with estery notes. Decent.

Can, many thanks herrklemann! Hazy pale orange color with white head. Aroma is resinous, orange jam, dank, woodfloor. Taste is resinous, piney, biscuity malts. Soft oily mouthfeel with low carbonation, warming finish, a bit boozy. Decent, but quite un-tropical.
