I have to take pics of what I have cellared for you. Some goodies in there!Malroth said:The older I get the more I spend on stuff that doesn't collect dust.
I go to a liquor store that just started stocking craft beer, and several cashiers have almost gone into shock
when I bring some of this stuff to the counter, so ,maybe, the prices are silly.
YEAH to being out of the hospital, and enjoy your cheap beer.0 -
Went to Greenbush (again) this weekend and decided to go a bit further into the mitten to check out a newer brewery called Transient. They have a ways to go with regards to better decor and food, but their beer is solid. Good stuff and recommended."A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0

It's New England style IPAs.....double IPAs that are dry hopped. They have a "hazy" appearance....some almost look like orange juice. It seems to be the new craze in the craft beer world. This sums them up nicely....mcgruff10 said:Steve,

To add to this they are not always double IPAs though I guess it's up to the individual to decide at what point it's a double.Indifference71 said:It's New England style IPAs.....double IPAs that are dry hopped.

They usually add a flocking agent like corn and or flour to create a haze.
They also tend to be more juicy then hoppy/bitter
Sometimes the keg or bottle or can needs to be shaken to get that hazy effect.
you love the bitter/hoppy IPAs that come out of the west coast, Colorado, etc these are different.

Ahh yeah, I meant to say that they are usually doubly dry hopped. I don't know what the hell that even means, but I do know that these beers taste damn good!Bentleyspop said:To add to this they are not always double IPAs though I guess it's up to the individual to decide at what point it's a double.

A lot of the "better" New England style IPAs are very regional and not getting wide distribution. In my area the beers from ODD13 in Lafayette, CO are in demand. As for an actual New England style IPA from New England I would recommend Lawson's Sip of Sunshine.mcgruff10 said:damn they sound pretty potent and good!
