On tap at location... On our way to Cleveland.

Wow! Very much agree with @ozzylizard. Nice, solid offering. Floral, hoppy and oh, so piney. Nice nice nice! Almost bordered on too sweet for me, but that's how I am ;(

Wet Hop IPA – from Hoppin’ Frog. 16 oz cans. Picked up at their brewery, Akron, OH, 18/10/24, $ 6.35 (Including tax), $ 0.397/fl oz. Reviewed 20/10/24 (Review 3373). Note that I use DD/MM/YY protocol.
Bottom of can stamped “BEST BY SEP 25 2024”. Stored at 34 degrees at home. Served at 46.9 degrees F in a hand washed and dried Jester King snifter. The final temperature was 55.5 degrees F.
Appearance – 4
First pour – Straw (SRM 3), hazy.
Body – Pale gold (SRM 4), opaque. Under direct light, same. When rear-lite, same but glows.
Head: Average (Maximum 3.7 cm, aggressive center pour), white, high density. Reduces to a 0.15 cm crown and a thin partial cap. Lots of lacing remains on the glass.
Lacing – Initial thin band with many windows dries to torn curtains.
Aroma – 4 – Flowery perfume, like the last time I went to Phipps Conservatory for a flower show. No yeast, no malt. No ethanol (8 % ABV according to the label).
Flavor – 4 – Follows the nose. No dimethylsulfide or diacetyl. No ethanol. Slight gastric warming occurs.
Palate – 4 – Thin; watery; soft but lively carbonation.
Style: Follows the style guidelines, as condensed by BA.
Final impression and summation: 4 Decent IPA, slightly past its prime.

3.6/5  rDev -7.7%

Fairly turbid burnt maize to light brown with an off-white head of moderate height.

Certainly explosive, it's got a similarly citrusy zest that Gangster Frog has, but with a bit of a tropical, mango bubblegum to it. However, it's florally soapy at times, and unusually bracing on the tongue. A faint white cornbread in the background does little to counter this.

The medium-full body's carbonation is firm, though it finishes a touch boozy.
