Trucks & Buses Must Exit Left Pale Ale presents a deeply hazy, warm yellow straw hue. Leading with a dank nose of fresh pineapple and a melange of stone fruit, the palate follows with intensely juicy flavors of overripe mango, canned pear, and grapefruit peel. A kiss of sweetness is balanced by a gentle and resinous bitterness to round out this smooth & deliciously drinkable Pale Ale.

Pours hazy pear into a nonic. White head quickly recedes to nothing. Dusty pineapple, papaya and lychee aromas. Medium bodied and dry with melon and pineapple front to back. Abrupt lychee finish.

Canton draught, 9/16/22. Heavily hazy/turbid brass-lemon-golden. Small, fleeting, white head. I appreciate that Trillium constantly experiments and doesn't just produce a steady stream of cookie cutter NE style pale ales, but since I'm usually only trying their new beers, I don't get a lot of classic NE style stuff from them, especially lately, where much of their new stuff is experimental/hybrid or even West Coast. Anyways, this was a real blast from the past and reminds greatly of something like Pocket Pigeon or even a lighter Fort Point Pale. Just pure, juicy goodness with heavy fruit, cracker and light honey-like malts and no flaw/alcohol/resin or any gross (aka Mosaic) hop notes. Soft, juicy, clean, well-attenuated, malty and low on the bitterness, yet amply balanced. Cracker malts with a hint of honey-like character. No resin, lots of citrus juice. Excellent body and flavor intensity for its size. A real treat.
