Episode 155 - Chi NEIPAs

Bring your bendy straw, we're dipping into some juicy, hazy New England-style IPAs made locally. Whether it's an actual style or not, stores can hardly keep any brewery's NEIPA in stock - so we evaluate seven of them in a blind tasting. We share everything we know about this trend, say "creamy" a few hundred times, and somewhat fail at recognizing Mosaic. There's some shoe-eating, retired slogans, Sunny D, and our vow to become brother husbands. Disappear into a glass with us, and let your juice loose. I don't know what the hell that means.
