Overpriced single from Appalachian. Sat in my fridge for a long while. Canned 8/28/24.
Pint glass at home. Glazed & not quite haze honey amber with a generous white wash head.
Smell is a lot of orange pepper with a slightly tropical sweet edge & olde sticky malt; inviting.
Juicy, strong sweet orange & guava-ish front. Middle on is a potent & bittersweet abv delivery of grapefruit rind, parsley & bitter orange. Touch of canned & creamy oxidized Malta. Some residual sugar stickiness & belly burn.
This was surprisingly decent to good.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is sweet tropical fruit hops and citrus. Taste is more of the nice tropical fruit hops and some malts.

Fairly hazy deep copper and orange coloured body with a very small, barely single centimetre tall pure white head that fades pretty quickly. Aroma of bright grassy and citrusey hops with a lot of alpha acids and a bit of sweetness, especially noticeable after the bitterness in the nose. Medium-bodied; Strong bitter flavours dominate at first with a lot of alpha acids and some citrusey elements with a strong and balanced malt profile and some softer sugars from tropical and especially citrus fruits at the end. Aftertaste shows some lighter malts and yeast, but the citrusey and slightly dry hops and alpha acid bitterness cuts through just about everything, in a good way. Overall, a pretty nice IPA with a prolonged bitterness, balanced maltiness and soft sugars at the end but the unfiltered quality and the citrus pungency makes this a nice and solid 'new england' IPA despite being here in the middle of the country. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized pour on draught at The Eagle [restaurant] in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana on 09-August-2021 with my wife and family on my twelfth wedding anniversary.

Hazy orange-gold pour. There’s a resin and citrus hop aroma that really leans in to the citrus. The flavor is good and hoppy with moderate to strong bitterness. There’s plenty of citrus, especially grapefruit and orange, and some resin and underlying malt. Very good.
