Can (8/26/20) pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Appearance is opaque black with a few light floaties, trace sparkle, finger-width beige foamy head with good retention and mild soapy lacing. Aroma is deep roasted malts with pine. Taste follows aroma with late vague nuttiness. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, elements are here but hop bite is a bit muted, perhaps somewhat related to age? OK.

Plenty caramel malt flavours, fairly sweet and a bit boozy. Apricots, bit of resin hops. Hoppy American strong ale.

On tap at Haandgemeng. An almost clear yellow colored beer with a short lived medium siced white head. The aroma has hints of pale malts, but it's the piney and citrusy hops that do most of the work. Grapefruit and a touch of orange. It's full-bodied and quite dry, with a pleasant carbonation and a good bitterness. The flavor too is very low on maltyness, with grapefruit, pine cones and some orange doing most of the job. Long finish. Sure it's a fine one, but all the way from the first sniff it felt a bit old. Could it be the spelt causing it? Anyway, I wouldn't shy away if I was offered it again. 171027

16 oz. can purchased at The Mansion. Pours a cloudy gold color with a large off white head and great retention. Decent lacing. Lots of sediment. Old can? Juicy hops aroma. Strong bitter hops flavor with a hint of citrus and a slightly harsh boozy finish. Tastes more like an IPA to me. Paid $2 a can = $1.95 too much.

Ridiculously hazy straw golden coloured body with a very large, fluffly tan head, about three centimetres tall that leaves a very ugly soapy lace on the sides. Aroma of citrus, grapefruit, light resin and pineapples with some malt and fructose noticeable. Medium-bodied; Rich citrusey and tropically fruit flavours show through, with a lot of dry malt and grassiness, a few seconds later, but both of those profiles give way to some sugars near the end from tropical fruits. Aftertaste is very complex and shows nice characteristics - from dry grassy to herbal notes to the tropical and citrus fruits and a soft & sweet flavour of resin, pineapple and mangoes. Overall, a very nice beer, especially for the style, although I'd say this is much closer to a 'true' New England [pure] IPA - especially since it's actually from New England - than any APA I've had and a lot of 'New England' IPAs that state that on the label and are far from delivering. Great to sample, even a few months old, this one is worth searching out for! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Krisp Market (BestDamnBeerShop) in San Diego, California on 31-January-2020 for US$3,49 sampled at my house here in Washington on 29-May-2020.
