Draught at Harry's, 3/25/22. Deep auburn-to-garnet. Clear. Thin, beige head showing low retention. Malty, not too much specialty malt/crystal malt character with an afterthought of light Christmas spice-like hops. Clean yeast, low sweetness. Softish, malty notes of toffee and hard candy with piney notes that gently balance. Great attenuation. Unexciting for sure, but well done.

Undated can drunk 3/18/22. Lightly hazy, deep coppery-brass with a small, thin, white head. Nose is pretty soft, mild, mellow with juicy fruits, citrus and honey-like malts with no alcohol, clean yeast and no twangy hop. In the mouth it's soft, malty with great attenuation and tons of tangerine, lemon and light tropical fruit. Nice little sessionable IPA here with no heavy-handed acidity and gentle, balancing malts that leads to a nicely balanced finish. Clean and well-constructed.

Draught at Timeout Market 9/29/21. Medium hazy orange juice with no head. Sweet honey and bubble gum seems more Massachusetts than Vermont. Juicy citrus is nice but there's some booze and a bit too much yeast character for my liking. Sweet and bubble gummy with orange and mango and papaya. Thick texture, quite malty but with lots of sharp alcohol showing through. Not on the same level as most other VT IPAs. Seems way too emulative of trillium/treehouse (though bubble gummier than both).
