On tap at Finn’s Craft Beer – Barnstable, soft-toned oats flaked New England IPA retains lemon-limed grapefruit sharpness, mild currant-spiked juniper berry bittering, tart passionfruit-guava pucker and teensy tangerine tang.

On tap at Triton – Long Beach Island, chronic-inspired Imperial IPA squeezes dank cannabis resin onto salty pine-lacquered candied fruiting, leaving mild lemony grapefruit bittering, milder navel orange tang and mildest peachy apricot sweetness (plus cedar pencil shavings) upon soft oats flaked base.

“Packin’ a fruit punch,” long-necked 19.2-ounce canned India Pale Ale (with 9.5% ABV) forwards syrupy rum-soaked orange, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, cherry and tangerine tanginess to Sabro-hopped coconut creaming, Lotus-hopped candied citrus twang and Sultana-hopped white grape esters, nearly getting cloy if warmed. Orange soda, cantaloupe melon ball, lime-juiced Maduro and banana daiquiri illusions

Dry Sabro-Mosaic-hopped NEIPA brings Martha’s Vineyard sea-salted grape leafing to Mosaic-derived lemony yellow grapefruit waxing and sweet orange peel tang plus milder Sabro-derived limey coconut twist. A light vanilla creaming sweetens the backend as peachy pineapple and guava tropicalia joins the fruitful mix to contrast lightly embittered juniper-tinged pine tones. Recommended.
