About This Beer
Sparking electricity, bubbling beakers, and maniacal laughter. That’s how I picture the brewhouse at New York’s Equilibrium Brewery.
Of course, it’s not like that at all — their taproom space is rustic and warm, like a cozy cabin in the woods. But, co-founder and head brewer Pete Oates can still act like a mad scientist when he brings a new batch of this soft-bodied, tropically fruity MC2 DIPA to life!
Tasting Notes
It tastes like Pete and his team took some space-age hybrid of grapefruit and tangerine and blended it with pineapple, mango, and a dollop of passionfruit. In short, it’s so tropically delicious you might want to sip it from a coconut shell.

Daily corona battle. Turkey noodle soup! edition. This is mango rich and dank balanced. Touch of pineapple and some lingering hops to finish.

An instant reminder of why an IPA is an IPA with great notes of herby, woody grains, it finishes off nice with a crisp sharp note of hops and with an 8% the second one taste better

Pretty good flavor with little sips then with bigger drinks you get the tingles followed by a smooth after taste. One of the better IPA’s I’ve had and I don’t like IPA’s.

Mango, pineapple and melon with nice hoppy bitterness and lingering taste. hazy, with lots of sediment

The pour on this beer lends to a nice hazy juicebomb. The aroma imparts tropical notes and fresh hops. The initial taste is tropical pineapple, tangerine, and grapefruit with underlying dank hops. This IPA is deliciously smooth and well balanced. The mouth feel is moderate thick yet very drinkable at 8%abv.
