I have a pint can obtained from Half Time early this year. Sampled previous beers from Fiddlehead and I’ve liked all the previous ones. Maintain the streak? it’s time to find out. A globe glass ready, I do the pour. Orange-yellow in appearance with a heroic top of icy white foam. I smell tropical and citrus both and perhaps some grain. I have to say the taste leans west coast. Lemons, a touch of oranges, cedar, grapefruit, cereal, hops and a moderate bitterness finishing. Not to the level of other IPAs from the brewery but a decent beer.

Canned, from North Shore Farms, Hauppauge, New York. Hazy golden, mid sized head. Generous aroma of green hops - lychee, papaya and passionfruit. Mid sweet with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Lots of citrus, papaya and mango. Long bitter finish.

RB score 3.68

From tap at Fools Gold, New York. Aroma is lots of orange, some tangerine, tropical notes, mango, grapefruit, light pale malt. Light to moderate sweet, fairly bitter finish. Quite tasty, well-rounded IPA.

16 oz can from Wegmans, 1/1/25. First rating of 2025, and running head first into the sad death of Rate Beer, coming rather soon. As for the beer, it is hazy yellowish, with a thin white foam of head that coats the glass in heavy lace. Pineapple, grapefruit, orange zest. Juicy, with a rind-style bitterness. Pretty good stuff. 4---

Regular Fiddlehead base, but a bit more piney, juicy, and floral. Very good.

Go Birds. Let’s go Flyers.

(Thanks, Jow!) Can. A- Grass, slightly dank, pineapple, tropical fruit. A- Slightly orange color, slightly hazy liquid, white head. T- Slightly dank, green onion, grassy, pineapple, melon, medium bitterness, rind pith. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Honestly, this was tasty! I typically don't get excited for IPAs but new this had a good rep. This was super drinkable, well balanced. If I'm drinking an IPA, this is what I want it to be like. Solid.
