Reviewed from notes.
On tap at Vermont Tap House, Williston, VT.
Poured into a tulip.
Appearance: murky orange cardboard color with a bar pour's kind of little white head which slipped off inwardly to leave very little lace
Aroma: danky toned hops, lemony hoppiness; some herbal hoppiness and a light peachy hop tone; then a light clean maltiness
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas together to a fine bittersweet quality; mild finish of lemony to peach to danky hop blend
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards the sipping side, I think; subtle smoothness to this but also some hop abrasion but wasn't anything overbearing
Overall: nicely done DIPA I would very much love to have again.

Pours a hazy, golden-yellow, with small, but lasting cap of foamy white head. Aroma is dank, with notes of sour washcloth, some tropical and citrus fruit. Flavor has tropical and citrus fruit elements, some hop-pine bitterness at the finish. Solid NE-style DIPA.

Sample at the brewpub. Cloudy yellow-gold color with a medium white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Partial rings of lacing. Piney hops, citrus and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, citrus and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Draught at the brewery, 4/15/17.
Quite hazy, though not soupy, lime-brass-copper body is topped by a solid white head.
Juicy fruits galore in the nose with light cracker and a hint of pine on the end. Bit of honey from the malt breaks through with a touch of fresh yeast and light dough. Warming provides kiwi, nectarine, mango and light pine from the mosaic. Very complex and sniffable nose with just a hint of esterification/alcohol.
Juicy in the mouth with a dextrinous and/or wheat-heavy texture that keeps the beer supple but dry. Medium amounts of engaging carbonation are nicely tight and work towards the same end. Lots of tropical fruit and juicy citrus with just a touch of pine and very light alcohol on the finish. Very nicely done and right up there with some of the best NE IPAs.

Can from 7-11 Mostly clear deep golden color with a huge bubbly white head that persists. Earthy minty citrus pine and resin on the nose with faint crackery malt. The flavor adds a hint of toasty malt and a touch of alcohol but follows the nose quite well. Tasty beer

16 oz. can purchased at 7-Eleven in Kittery Maine. Real nice aromatics. Pine, tropical fruits, Citrus. Also notable malts.
The flavor is a tad malt forward right out the gate. Bitterness in the form of pine and citrus rind. Just a touch harsh in the bitterness department. Medium body with correct carbonated levels. Overall average or just a shade above average. Pretty drinakble
