Lukaduke (1013) - Portland, Maine, USA - JAN 4, 2013

Growler from brewery. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a finger of foam that settles quickly. Aromas are hop forward juicy citrus and a touch of sweet stonefruit in the mix. The palate has a good dose of citrusy tangerine on the front end but bitters out the flavor early and gets pretty dank and piney from mid to late palate. A bit of burn on the finish...

Pastor (776) - Skowhegan, Maine, USA - DEC 20, 2012

I love fresh IPA’s Don’t you? Big old hop nose pine and citrus everywhere. Great bitterness in the flavor profile it tastes like biting into a hop come. Light and crisp in the mouth. I can’t say anymore than “Drink it when its fresh”
