449. 18th Street Brewery (Hammond, IN) - Nickel

“Double Dry Hopped New England DIPA.”

Nice hazy pour, and exactly the fruity, floral profile you would expect from a New England IPA. It has a comparatively sweet finish, so you don’t really taste the 7.4% ABV. Reminds me of Evil Czech’s Nefarious Harbor, which I clearly remember enjoying very much (three years ago). This one isn’t quite as sweet, and has some citrus flavor to go along with the stone fruit—but it’s not quite as much fun as I remember the Evil Czech being. Can’t put my finger on why.
