Lucky Break

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a hazy, turbid body characteristic of the New England IPA style. The cloud through the beer speaks to the suspended yeast and wheat particles that define this class. A dense, creamy head forms and clings to the glass with notable persistence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright tropical fruit notes—mango and pineapple from the Citra and Mosaic hops—layered beneath fresh-cut grass and herbal undertones. Citrus oils dominate, with a subtle floral whisper and hints of stone fruit complexity. The overall impression is vibrant and garden-fresh, without aggressive resinousness.

◐ Taste

The palate enters smooth and juicy, with stone fruit flavors playing across the mid-palate before a restrained bitterness emerges—50 IBUs balance fruit sweetness without dominating. The malt backbone, built from Pale Ale and torrefied wheat, provides subtle body and a touch of dryness. Hop character remains integrated rather than assertive, allowing fruit and floral notes to remain in focus.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length, with citrus and herbal notes persisting gently into a dry, slightly peppery aftertaste. Residual floral and tropical echoes fade gradually without harsh bitterness.
