Straw color. Aromas and flavors of orange juice, dry hopping, and apricot jam on water crackers with a round, crisp, spritzy, dryish medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish with impressions of orange oil, warm french baguette, and savory dried green herbs. This is an excellent and highly drinkable IPA.

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.
