This month’s #CraftHappiness endeavor is full of subtle citrusy Mandarina hops, and is dedicated to what we think every child’s life should be – fun. Yet despite youth’s pursuit of a carefree and untroubled existence, many children face hardships, some to an unimaginable degree. This IPA will help those who help our kids face life’s hardships. Because young or old, everyone can use a little hope.

A: Pours a clear medium golden amber in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and faint burnt orange colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall sudsy foamy beige head that reduces to a medium to large sized patch of medium thick film surrounded by a large patch of very thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to heavy amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate aromas of citrus/grapefruit zest, citrus/grapefruit pith, and floral hops with a light to moderate aroma of biscuit + caramel malts.
T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of biscuit + caramel malts along with a hint of toasted malts and a light amount of caramel sweetness. That is followed by moderate flavors of citrus/grapefruit zest, citrus/grapefruit pith, and floral hops which contribute a just shy of moderate amount of lingering bitterness.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Lightly crisp initially with a hint of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and enjoyable. I could easily have a couple of these .
