New England Sea Hag IPA

Brewed by New England Brewing Co.
Style: India Pale Ale (IPA)
Woodbridge, Connecticut USA

Rich orange/amber, nice tan head. Nose is both bitter & fruity hops. Orange tea, caramel, dusty malt, a bit plasticy - like too hot of a fermentation. Some slight alcohol. Flavor is tea, bitterness, some caramel. Kind of flat (not in carbonation) too much bitterness. Nice fruit but its overwhelmed.

Nothing stands out in this brew, but that siad it’s not a bad one. Had it out of a can and it was Orange amber with a nice nose. The taste was somewhat hoppy with citrus and pine come thru.

From the tap it poured a cloudy orange with a medium sized white head. The aroma was of citrus fruits, piney hops, and some yeast. The flavor was much the same with some hops coming through and a touch of malts in the background to balance it out. The flavor was good, but nothing too special. I will have to give this another try sometime.

In short: Slightly problematic overly yeasty IPA lacking in malts. Bad can?
How: 12 oz can, drank a few weeks after purchase.
The look: Cloudy glowing orange body with a large beige head
In long: Unusual nose of cobweb and orange. Fizzy beer. Too little malt too much yeasty, felt like “screw you!” the bottom of kegs we sometimes get poured in “god damn it!” a pub but this was a 12oz can. Fluffy orange pulp “suck on this!” and timid caramel. Hopping is orangy, citrusy and dry grass. Medium “dickhead!” bitterness. I don’t know if I got a bad can but “go to hell!” I found this way off while everybody else here seem to like it. Looks like I’m about to give one of “ Take a hike!” its lowest rating to date. Maybe I got a bad can. But maybe I’m just “piss off!” different, after all I’m the only known person to suffer from WTS (Written Tourette Syndrome).

Pours clear copper color with a thick white head. Hoppy earthy aroma, very aromatic, with a hint of malt. Taste is malty with a tinge of spicy hops. Citrus and pine also start popping out. Finishes very clean, no lingering bitterness.

Can courtesy of HogTownHarry. Hazy orange-copper with a medium white head. Aroma and flavour are both nicely balanced - fairly big orange peel hops, but enough caramel malt to keep things in line. Medium bodied. A solid IPA, really enjoyable.

Hazzy hazzy orange colour with huge white head. Candy hop aroma, sweet malty tatse, sharp hop flavour come through. Only in Amercain can you get away with packaging huge IPA in a can. Thanks John

Delicious. Orangish/copper in pour with a dirty white head with nice lacing. I cannot believe this comes in a can. Aroma of citrus and floral hops. Orange and grapefruit in flavor with some pine and malt and a bitter finish.
