10 oz draft. Aroma is strong blackberry with a hint of lime peel. Flavor follows with a strong sour character and tart lime finish. Mild pucker in the glads. A true fruited sour without the extra adjuncts!

10 draft. Aroma is home made fudge with caramel. Flavor is 100% chocolate and caramel nuances. Body is full with a smooth texture.. can’t find the peanut butter in this variation, but there sure is a lot of chocolate.!!

Canned 9/18/25, drunk 10/7/25.
Slightly darker than usual, bronze-maize. Big, frothy, well-retained, off-white head.
Lovely christmasy spice to it thanks to all these spicy/woody/slightly piney hops. But of course, not too much pine, no resin, and no alcohol or caramel. Yeast is very fruity/estery, with round, white bread-like malts to easily balance.
Bright and floral with wood and spice. Christmas potpourri galore with lots of West Coast flavors in a sweet, soft, round, heavily fruity New England vessel. I love the up-front spice, but the bitterness/acidity is very, very weak as it nears the finish. All that said, it's an interesting beer and always nice to see a non-cookie-cutter NEIPA. Pretty hard to do much new stuff with the style.

Canned 7/26/25, drunk 9/27/25.
Lightly hazy, bright bronze-melon. Large, white head.
Very woody with dry stone fruit, peach, nectarine, that sort of thing. Feels very Simcoe and or Amarillo-heavy. Malts are sparse, showing cracker and white bread. Dry, clean.
Again very woody and dry with unripe nectarine and lots of cracker and bread from malt. Clean but very low on juice or flavor depth. Feels like a WC/NE hybrid.
