We’ve had googly eyes for Orono Brewing ever since USA Today named them one last year’s 10 Best Brewpubs in the U.S.

Then, when we got our hands on our first Orono Hazy, we were totally smitten. And, so were all of you! In just 48 hours, you gobbled up every juicy drop! 

Not to worry if you missed out — today, we’ve got another Hazy you haven’t seen before from these New England juice masters. 

It’s The Way Life Should Be, and for craft fans up in Maine, it’s more than just the state’s motto. It’s uber-refreshing hop fuel that you stuff into backpacks and coolers to make life the way it should be: a day of crushing cans with those closest to us.

Orono brews this New England-style IPA with Maine-grown grains and then triple dry-hops it with a heaping mix of Galaxy, Mosaic, Citra, El Dorado, and Vic Secret. It practically drips with clementine-like citrus and hints of sticky mango juice, with a dank and grapefruity bitterness on the finish.

But, you won’t ever experience this crushable Hazy anywhere outside the Northeast! So, score yourself a stash now before it all disappears again.
