Slightly hazy, gold color with a thin head and lace. Citrus aroma. Taste is dry hops, malt and citrus, with a slightly bitter finish. Complex and interesting. Medium bodied and well-crafted. Fairly low ABV. A great session beer!

16 ounce can poured into a Duvel tulip glass. Canned 12/15/21, so not too fresh.
L---Clear, beautiful golden color. A fairly mild pour left two fingers of soapy white foam. Nice retention and meh lacing.
S---Malty as advertised, which is odd. Cracker with citrus backing.
T---Lemon and some tropical fruit. Strong malt backbone as advertised. A bit of a surprise with the low ABV.
F---Medium bodied with good carbonation. A bit of astringency in the finish.
O---Pretty good for what it is, which is a session beer. I could knock back a few of these.

Pours a slightly hazy gold. Tropical aroma. Lighter than expected. Citrus body. Bitter hop finish. Not as juicy as I would have thought. Good but could be better.

Deep gold pour, really nice citrus nose when you pop the top. Foamy white head provides a nice cap. Counter to the explosion of aroma, flavor is mild--some citrus, grass and a bit of bread from the malt. A truly sessionable IPA, but falls well short of Lawson's SoS.

This beer is amazing! Super easy drinking, a nice malt backbone with a light to medium body with a perfect touch of bitterness. A great session IPA that’s full of flavor!

Poured from a 16 oz can purchased at Shaws; born on 12/15/21. Pours clearish amber with decent head; rapidly recedes. Tastes of good hops up front with a decent malt finish. Very solid & nicely done. Seek.

Loved this beer. Picked up a 4 pack with cans dated 12/15/21. Drinking in early January and couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Love the smell and beer is fantastic to drink. Goes down easy with hints of citrus and malt but not overwhelming. Great session beer.

Grassy, green, delicious, pure hop flavors that sooo many beers are lacking these days. Its light bodied like a beautiful hop tea but not weak on hop flavor and just enough malt/body to not disappoint. Excellent session beer.

Can dated 8/28/20 into pint glass. Pours a crystal-clear pale amber with a thick off-white head. Initial impression is a delightfully crisp and juicy IPA with lemon zest and pine resin. Slight peppery notes, too. Cracker malts really provide a nice counterpoint to the hoppiness. Mouthfeel is medium and quite clean. Finish is dry and bitter, inviting the next sip. Overall, a very enjoyable, very sessionable IPA!
