Zoom Time
A New England IPA at session strength, 4.5%. The brewery describes aromas of stone fruit and pineapple, followed by a burst of citrus and a sweet, juicy finish; a second tasting note of its own names passion fruit and peach on the nose. Citra, Galaxy and Amarillo are the hops listed on the current range page, and they account for the tropical and orange notes. Sweetness, not bitterness, shapes the end in that account.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Zoom Time
Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.
The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
