Hazy golden yellow color. Aromas and flavors of orange, basil and oregano on breadsticks, pineapple, and mango and banana with a velvety, lively, spritzy, dryish medium body and an intriguing, medium-length finish with impressions of orange, pizza hut breadstick, mango and pineapple, and herbs de provence. Lovely tropical notes with an interesting savory and herbal note that reminds of an Italian dinner al fresco in the herb garden.

New England Style IPAs, often abbreviated to NEIPA, are juicy, hazy American Style IPAs with intensely fruity, floral, hoppy flavors. They differ from other American Style IPAs in their unfiltered haze that can be attributed to dry-hopping, the use of high-protein grains, certain yeasts, among other brew choices. NEIPAs are currently enjoying huge popularity and drinkers are buying cans of the cloudy, juicy style in droves.
