About this beer
The American Double IPA that defined the New England-style IPA category. Unfiltered, soft, and intensely hop-forward — citrus, pine, and tropical fruit aromas with a smooth, almost creamy body and resin-laden finish. Sold only in cans with the famous 'drink from the can' instruction.
