Expect aromas of ripe papaya and marmalade thanks to Idaho 7, the perfect complement to the well-loved tropical fruit characteristics of Simcoe and Mosaic.

16 oz can poured into shaker pint.
A: Very little head, mostly a white film. Body is a very light amber, yellow with excellent clarity.
S: Peaches, Apricots, pineapple, a little honey and some light cracker malts.
T: honeydew, cantaloupe, apricots, light bits of clover honey a slight sweet maltiness on the end and just a touch of bitterness.
M: Solid medium feel not cloying, not too light just dire straight dead center feel.
O: Very good beer. A nice fruity juice bomb of an IPA with just light malt backbone. This is easy drinking and should be easy to get which makes it fantastic.

From the pint can, it pours a darker golden amber with a nice head that lasts. Lots of lace. The nose gets a bit of pine. The mouth enjoys a light hop bitterness with a well balanced malt. Yum!

On tap in a flute.
Golden, small white head rings the glass.
Big and bright tropical fruit aromas. A bit of pine and some toasted malts are noticeable.
Tropical fruits, citrus juice and zest, light bitterness with a tad of sweetness. Subtle earthy pine and malt presence.
Medium bodied and moderate carbonation. A nice mouthfeel.
A very tasty IPA. The series has been great for the last few years. Happy to have this option at local brews and for sale at the grocery store in 4 packs of 16oz. cans.

Very little head which surprised me, however that quickly turned to joy with the wonderful tropical fruit smells I got. Great taste and not filling at all. Awesome beer
