McNeill's Brewery is in Brattleboro, Vermont. This 5.7% ABV beer is bottle-conditioned, and according to the bottle, it is the winner of 13 national and international awards. According to their website, it is an English-style IPA.
The beer pours a hazy deep amber and burnt orange in color. There is a half-inch of creamy, foamy head that is off-white to very light brown in color. The beer has a fruitiness reminiscent of Juicy Fruit gum. There is orange marmalade with a touch of iodine. The taste follows the aroma quite directly. It is on a solid malt base, but the hops predominate, leaving a very dry and bitter finish.
