Unremarkable, grapefruit juice pour that retains a thin, soapy ring throughout. Citrus and earth on the inviting nose. Has a pretty distinct front, middle, and finish: Juicy, with lots of citrus out front (lemony, with orange and lime palate-playing a bit). Some earth and dankness in the middle, a nice contrast. Pithy finish; earthiness continues, still a little dank; subtleties include grass, onion, a little melon. Smooth, easy feel. NICE!

Pale, partially hazy, light gold colored body; fair carbonation; decent head, initially thick and soapy, fades quite a bit soon after. Tropical and citrus fruit aroma. The taste starts off a bit acrid and bitter then develops a bit of citrus and grapefruit flavor with an underlying base of light, bread-like malt flavor. Medium mouthfeel; a bit slick;

Anchorage produced a decent if unremarkable beer. There is nothing really unique or distinctive to the beer. Good but unfocused.

Poured at 51.3 °F; no canning date provided.

 

 

 

16oz can from Tavour. Hazy golden, skin of head. Aroma is light citrus peel. Taste comes in mellow, grapefruit and lemon, mildly sweet and gentle bitterness. Mouth coating, but overall easy on the palate.

A: The beer is hazy yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a patch of bubbles on the surface, a narrow collar around the edge, and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of lime citrus are present in the nose along with notes of green grapes.
T: The taste has flavors of lime along with notes of lychee and hints of green grapes. Little to no bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels medium-bodied and slightly juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This IPA is very easy to drink. I liked the combination of lime and green grapes in the smell and taste.

Serving type: can

Hazy yellowish straw hue, slight lacing. Smell is strong, probably the best part of the beer-a mixture of citrus, dank hops, and onions. Taste is mildly hoppy and dank, a bit of a juicy citrus and oniony blend. Medium bodied, mildly boozy. Good, not great, more of an APA than an IPA or NEIPA, in my opinion.
