Brewery: Tox Brewing
Location: New London, CT
Style: Triple IPA
ABV: 10%
“First there was Angel Wings, then Angel's Trumpet. In the pursuit of limitations, we decided to push this series one step further. Scaled carefully and with purpose, this Triple big brother brings huge notes of citrus, peach, grapefruit, melon, and mango. It drinks very dangerously smooth and juicy for the ABV.”
Max: 9/10
"I like this quite a bit; especially at the price point (it ran us about $6). It's a top tier triple IPA. There’s a huge “refreshing” quality to this that caught me by surprise.
As flavors go, this is like walking through a forest on a spring day. It’s a cool morning, maybe 11am. Everything is damp and shrouded in shade. A frog ribbits in the distance and the smell of the earth rises slowly. You’re chewing on a piece of citrus bubblegum that falls lazily out of the mouth and into a glob of tree sap. You go to pick it up and the gum pulls from sap like tendons ripping in a body. Back into the mouth. The gum now oozes a piney gooeyness that is surprisingly light and quenching.
