Super hazy golden and light straw coloured body with a very thick six to seven centimetre tall, microfoamed and long-lasting off-white head that leaves a nice cap on top and a smooth lace on the sides. Aroma of papaya, rose water, herbal tea, dry biscuity malts and a nice kick of fresh hops - seemingly Sabro or Citra - nice in the nose. Medium-bodied; Fairly rich and robust wheatie and clean malt notes show at first and provide good support to the dry and herbal hop flavours, with some bitterness that also comes from citrus fruits and ending with a soft but noticeable level of sweetness - more from caster sugar versus any lactose. Aftertaste is enjoyable with a great balance throughout from the fruits, malt, hops and yeastiness, which seems stronger on the finish, but the flavours and profile here in this single can are great throughout. Overall, a well-executed New England IPA that still has some older school bitterness and flavours, but the citrusey and hazy aspects of this are on-point. Great to sample and a nice pick up, if available! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 03-September-2022 for US$4,49 canned on 05-July-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 04-November-2022.

Sample at Thirsty Moose Manchester with jcwattsrugger Pours a solid dark brown with light haze and a thin off white head that slowly dissipates. Big peanut with roast and hints of chocolate and earth to counter. On of the better PB beers I've had.

16oz can. Poured a clear yellow color with a small white head. I really like the grainy, wheat, biscuit character. Very easy to drink, and really fresh. I enjoyed that it wasn't too hop forward (like American hoppy). Pleasant.

Pours dark brown into a tulip. Mocha head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Vanilla and peanut butter aromas. Soft with sweet marshmallow, peanut butter and vanilla turning quickly to charred earth and burnt toast in the lasting finish.

6/12/2023. Bottle shared by Colin, cheers. Pours clear very dark brown with a small frothy beige head. Aroma of dark malts, chocolate, molasses, cocoa, dried fruits, toffee, nut, touch of bourbon. Moderate sweetness, medium roasted bitterness. Quite full bodied, smooth, soft carbonation. Rich chocolate mildly boozy finish. Enjoyable.
