Crush IPA takes the citrus characteristics of Peak IPA and elevates them with a subtle addition of organic blood orange peel. The juicy citrus aroma really pops, and the brisk body of the beer is accented with notes of bright ripened fruit.

Pours hazy golden with a thick white head. Aroma of mild tropical notes. Taste is extremely floral with mild citrus notes. Palate includes more floral notes, barley, nuts and earth tones. Interesting.

Can from Half Time. Press unclear orange, thin head, mild lace. Aroma of orange / citrus, a little herbal hop, some grainy malt notes. Clean, citrusy flavor, mild bitterness. Decent mouthfeel. Won't blow you away, but it's a solid, drinkable brew.

Can from a Lazy Dog Hazy golden orange color with a small bubbly white head. Big citrus especially orange on the nose with a faint bread underneath. Big citrus flavor with a faint butterscotch and hop bitterness. I liked the spruce beer better, this one is a bit too heavy on orange flavor with some unpleasant bitter butterscotch coming through.

12 oz. can purchased at Craft Beer Cellar (Amesbury). Can dated 7/20/16. Unclear golden, fast dying head. Aroma is orange peel, pale malt, and a hint of pine.

The flavor has a steady amount of citrus peel with the faintest note of pine in the backend. The bitterness is moderate and the texture becomes dry. I guess I should not have sampled "the Juice" from Peak right before this. This is dull in comparison to their Juice.

900th rating. Pours an orangey-amber from a can. Piney aroma and flavor, I really am not picking up on any citrus characteristics at all. Bitter with a weak malt backbone. Meh.

Can: Lillies and tangerine aroma, not super strong. Cloudy amber, medium head. Orange, tangerine, and lilles, dry. Medium body, easy carbonation, bitter and resinous. Hop forward with little malt presence. Fruity yes, but surprisingly floral as well. Not a one trick pony.
