Description
A London ale parent engineered to release thiols, so the beer arrives with guava, passionfruit and grapefruit already in it before a single hop pellet is weighed. Ferments like the English strain it came from (soft, low attenuation, hazy) which is why it has become the default for New England IPA on this side of the catalog.
