Draught at the brewery, 3/25/17 and again on draught at Worden Hall, 4/19 and again on draught at 5 Horses, 4/20/17.
Heavily hazy, borderline soupy blonde-bronze with a small, white head atop showing moderate retention.
Lovely blend of juicy guava, nectarine and papaya mixing with light honey-like malts and soft stone fruit and lime on the finish. At Worden Hall, I had it side-by-side with DDH Stillings Street and it held up and then some. Where DDH Stillings is more dry, deep and, perhaps, funky, this one is more classic NE IPA juicy with a bit more malt sweetness and influence.
In the mouth it’s juicy, lightly malty with a soft texture and engaging carbonation. Tons of lime, lemon, guava and nectarine with no resin or flaw. Excellent, as always, from this series and an outstanding expression of the Nelson hop with none of its bad qualities showing.

Pours hazy straw into a tulip. Bright white soapy head with good retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Lemon and grass aromas. Medium bodied with yeast and hay upfront turning to lemon pith in the lasting finish.

12 oz. can thanks to Chalumeaux! Cloudy bright yellow. Aroma is great! White grape skins, hey, grassy notes.
Almost no bitterness whatsoever... juicy texture. Mouthfeel is soft and airy. Super crushable.

Can from Colonial. Hazy deep yellow color with a huge frothy white head that persists. Lemony pine and grass on the nose with hints of earth and faint bready malt. Flavor follows the aroma quite well, but brings the grassy more into focus. Moderate to high bitterness lingers in the finish. Pretty tasty beer.
