Mostly hazy and slightly murky with solid head retention, smells of papaya, tangerine, and apricot. The taste is dense and juicy with flavors of orange juice, mango, kiwi, and white grape juice on a soft, extra thick, and “chewy” body. The finish is long and low in bitterness, featuring notes of cantaloupe, lime peel, apricot, Pinot Grigio, and soft floral and herbal hops. Overall, another excellent rendition of a style from this brewery, this top an impressively authentic New England IPA. It’s juicy, it’s tropical, balanced, and complex; it most reminds me of Juice Bomb, or maybe DDH Mosaic Bomb (I’ve only had that one once three years ago)
