Behind the Light is a New England IPA from Definitive Brewing Company in Portland, Maine, brewed with all-American hops: Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe.

The nose opens with tropical and citrus fruit character, featuring grapefruit and orange juice notes. On the palate, those tropical and citrus tones take centre stage, but hoppy pine and resinous bitterness quickly assert themselves, bringing balance and structure. The finish is clean and lingers pleasantly.

At 7.4% ABV, this is a classic New England IPA that showcases American hop character without pretence. It pours hazy golden yellow with a thin foam head.
