What better occasion to push the boundaries of our large bird lineup than Thanksgiving?! Inspired by the legendary three bird roast popularized by John Madden throughout Thanksgiving Day NFL broadcasts, Turducken is a saturated hop bomb of a Triple IPA. The can labels sport two different versions of the same Zoom collaboration meeting; one in traditional Trillium hand-drawn fashion by Kevin Cimo at FairFolk and the second a colorized and cartoony take by Andy Godish at Permanent Hangover.

Pouring a dense, deep pale yellow with remarkable haze, Turducken's appearance is reminiscent of our hoppiest Double and Triple IPAs. Like its namesake delicacy, the aroma is layered, offering notes of blended citrus zest, punchy white grape juice, pineapple, and a gentle piney bitterness. Full-bodied, mouthcoating, and deftly balanced, Turducken is an indulgent Triple IPA and the perfect complement to your celebratory spread.

Peach, tangerine and a little citrus. Mostly sweet finish with a little tang. Booze doesn't seem as strong as it is, but plenty sweet. Tap at CK.

Draught Fort Point, 12/12/21. Heavily hazy, golden-maize w a small, fleeting, white head. Cat urine and white grape with crackers malts. Wow, was expecting a shit ton of malt sweetness but it still feels balanced. Mineral, sweat, earth, cracker, urine. Hmmm, don't usually get cat piss but here we are. It's not too bad actually and melds into the galaxy/nelson funk. In the mouth it's buttery via heavy diacetyl. But it's rich, soft and dry. Drier than usual for this style. Heavy honey, light pine, juicy citrus and big butter. Honestly the diacetyls fine, just expected more hop nuance. 2022 vintage draught at Fort Point, 1/31/23. No diacetyl, less cat piss, but it still doesn't do it for me. Strong, brutish hops, heavily sweet malt character. What's to love here?

Wow, it's drinkable lol. Decent hop zippiness on the end with a clean finish.

Pours a luscious orange juice haziness from a can. Big citrus aroma and flavor. Very good beer.

Little 🔥🔥🔥, though warned up to probably close to cask temp, which is preferable. J M. This is screwdriver city. Need more of this.
