Pours pale yellow into a tulip. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to mottle surface. Tropical fruit aromas. Dry with dusty tropical fruit and resin front to back.

Location: 22 oz bottle from the Cabot factory store in Waterbury, 7/17/15
Aroma: The aroma is at first grassy, then floral, herbal, and a fruity, some grapefruit and berry
Appearance: It pours a cloudy golden-orange color with a thin off-white head and coating lace
Flavor: It tastes pretty nice, with a light sweetness, a clean bitterness, and a hint of spice
Palate: This one is smooth and fairly dry on the mouth, with a soft-to-average carbonation
Overall Impression: Yup, even the cheese shops in VT have craft beer. This one came through nicely for me. It hits the flavor profile you want from a Session IPA, without the wateriness you always want to avoid. Very drinkable, but that's not unusual in this style. No complaints. I'm a little surprised the scores here are not higher. I've had worse Session IPAs from more established breweries for sure. If they canned this and sold it in 6-packs, I've sure the craft loving population of VT would happily drink this while hiking, skiing, etc.

Bottle bought at Craft Beer Cellar. Aroma is a good mix of conifer, citrus and tropical fruits but with a slight cabbage smell. Taste is dominated by conifer in a very thin and watery texture. Standard session. Just OK. Bouteille achetée chez Craft Beer Cellar. L’olfactif est un beau mélange d’agrumes, de conifères et de fruits tropicaux, avec la présence de terre humide également. On notera cependant une légère présence d’odeur de chou. Visuel: Jaune, voilée, mousse blanche d’épaisseur moyenne qui s’attarde en surface du liquide. Au gustatif, les conifères et les herbes grasses se diluent dans la légèreté du liquide. Normal pour une session. Sensation de salé en arrière goût. Le liquide est très mince en bouche. Les conifères sont en abondance. Correcte sans plus.
