What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “No question about it: huge tangerine that is candy-like. A hint of vanilla leaves an impression of a creamsicle.”

Flavor: “Initial impression: tangerine. Mid-palate: tangerine. Finish: tangerine. Aftertaste: wait for it…tangerine. A light herbal spicy character similar to white pepper appears as it starts to warm. Creates a nice complexity. Not a lot of beer flavor comes through.”

Overall: “If you really love tangerines and hoppy beers, this was made with you in mind.”

What the Brewers Say

“Tangerine Space Machine is a New England–style IPA. Its nose is huge with tangerine and a little hops in the background. The mouthfeel is juicy and full-bodied. The flavor is citrus, fruit, and subtle bitterness, which comes from a blend of Galaxy, Topaz, and Michigan Copper hops.”
