750 ml growler. Thanks, snuffy. The beer is a glowy yellow-tannish orange color. It’s completely clouded through and looks heavy with unfiltered goodness. Smallish white head, a bit soapy, but it is a growler pour. The aroma is wonderfully juicy, full of fruity hop flavor. Big tropical flavor with sweet stone fruit and citrus. Pineapple, peach, tangerine, melon, kiwi, lime. Really, really nice, particularly as it warms up and more flavor emerges. Nice mineral/yeast note. Full and juicy taste. Brimming with more of those fruity hop flavors. Mild bitterness. I could understand wanting a smidge more, but I like it. Fair bit of astringency, which I really like in these New England-style/English yeast IPAs. Reminds me of some Hoof Hearted beers. I would love to see this brewery make more beers like this and see them in cans.
