Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: semi-cloudy burnt yellow color with a two finger white foamy which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: honey dew, orange and melon-like hoppiness with a nice low key malt ball
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a very balanced bittersweet and semi-juicy way; finishes honey dew-ish with oranges
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable, very smooth along the tongue with a touch of hop spice ever so slightly
Overall: a very nicely done IPA more than worthy of returning to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: hazy burnt orange color with a two finger white foamy head, mildly dissipated to leave some messy lace
Aroma: peachy to semi-tropical fruity character, some sweet pine and clean malts
Flavor: starts sweet through the peachy and subtle tropical fruitiness becomes slightly balanced bittersweet blend with a super quick aftertaste of peachiness and some malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, somewhat sessionable, finishes cleanly through the peachiness and tropical fruitiness
Overall: nice DIPA collaborated with another great brewery of VT. I'd have again.
