New England’s Original IPA | As enjoyable today as it was in ‘93, IPA is a regional favorite and a craft beer classic. Styled after an English IPA but brewed with distinctly American hops, it’s citrusy, refreshing, and perfectly balanced– as perfect on a Cape Cod beach as it is in a VT ski lodge or Boston dive bar.

Tight off white rocky head stayed on a slowly carbonating light copper coloured body. Sweet citrus, resin, syrup & caramel aroma. Medium bodied, sharp on the tongue with softer clean back. Light crisp tastes of peach, sweet fruits, soft malt & syrup. Straightforward but a bit old school.
