Can: Poured a yellow color IPA with a nice large white foamy head with OK carbonation with some lacing. Aroma of bitter hops notes with some citrusy notes and light bitterness. Taste is a mix of bitter hops notes with some citrusy notes and some dry malt notes Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Middle of the road old school style double IPA.

After exploring Acadia decided to warm up with some beer at Bar Harbor beerworks this was panic buy. Deep golden thin nose is hops and malt. Tastes of pine, caramel, malt, herbal and some alcohol on finish.

12oz bottle from Downtown Wine and Spirits, best before 9/25/15, drunk 8/8/15.
Medium sized light beige head tops a dark copper-brass body showing good clarity. Head retention is medium to medium-low.
Cluster-like hoppiness in the nose shows light conifer notes, dry lime zest and lots of floral, perfumey dryness. Malts are dry, bready and laden with light caramel while a fruity yeast is persistent (cherries). Maybe not the most cohesive aroma but it’s serviceable.
The flavor seems to be a throwback to the old New England IPAs. Definitely a lot of English influence, with plenty of medium malt character, more sweetness than probably it needs and fairly low bitterness. Still, some light grapefruit/orange and cherry character is interesting and mildly pleasing. Earthiness builds up, with crunchy/crusty malts and more lighthearted fruitiness on the end. Well, at least you can’t complain about it being resinous, boozey or overdone! Though, if you’re looking for an English/American IPA hybrid like this, Mystic’s Wigglesworth just puts this thing to shame. Watery texture, lively carbonation, no alcohol noted.
