An American IPA with a truckload of hops. Cluster Truck is brewed with close to four pounds of Columbus, Comet Amarillo, and Citra Hops per barrel, creating a taste profile with hints of grapefruit rind, fresh cut grass, and rolled down windows. It’s hoppy but not too bitter. Perfect for having a few without filling your tank.

12oz can. Can bottom is stamped '01 04 21'.
Partially clear, pale gold colored body. Active rising bubble show. One finger of white head.
Aroma is leafy, earthy. Lots of dirt smell.
Taste is clean, with floral and earthy flavors, with a bit of pine. After taste continues the pine, along with the floral.
Medium mouth feel. Very good carbonation.
A quite tasty beer but also quite self contained. Holds itself close to the vest, and lacks a bold expression. Seems well balanced.

Cluster Truck pours a copper color, with a never dissipating, lacing head. Weak earthy aroma. Flavor is very malty, very heavy, very earth, with some dank hops near the end. good body and feel. Overall, its flavorful, but the malts and hops seem to clash, lots and lots of earth.

Pours a semi-clear, golden color. The head is white, 2 finger, somewhat frothy, with good retention. Some lacing on the glass.
The nose is a nice citrus, pine aroma. More citrus than pine.
Taste is pine forward, that turns into citrus on the backside.
Decent body, and the hops do linger in my throat on the way down.
Delicious IPA. Pleasure to drink.

Tried on tap, poured a beautiful clear golden color with nice head retention. Little bit of grapefruit and grass, firm but not palate stripping bitterness. Incredibly enjoyable & balanced IPA.

No haze,
No love.

Actually a pretty good American IPA that borders between West Coast and Midwest styles. Tastes like there might be some Golden Promise malt in this and that always gets my approval. Also priced right.
