If I could rate this beer ten stars I would. By far the best most treasurable beer I have ever sipped and had the opportunity to drink in my life. I hate to hop on the bandwagon but this beer is just too good. Sip after sip, your mouth is just exploding with hops however there is no bite and it is so balanced and smooth. It is not overpowering yet not bland by any means, it is literally the perfect median for hoppiness, bitterness and smoothness and to top it off its nearly impossible to find unless you travel all the way to Waterbury, CT which makes it that much better and savorable!

Didn't like this IPA. We drank it at their brewery.

Smooth hoppy finish. A true pleasure to drink!

Definitely a hoppy start, followed by a shuttle sweetness. The hoppiness fades quickly between sips.

Grapefruit and slightly bitter with the hops. I'm not a huge IPA drinker but would never turn this down.Best beer I've ever had? No. But an exceptionally good beer! If you're able to get your hands on a few enjoy and share with a friend to make your beer bros jealous. Cheers!

Nummy. Fruity but manly.

Everything I heard about this beer is true! Fantastic! Hoppy but not overly so. A variety if notes.
