Inspired by concentrates in the recreational world, this IPA leans on various forms of hop concentrates. Mosaic, Citra, and Equanot hop oils in the kettle for a crisp and clean flavor profile and a blend of hop aromatics on the finished side along with a healthy dose of hop pellets providing a bouquet of aromatics!

Can. White head with lace. Orange hued gold. Not hazy but not clear.
A lot of hop oil flavors going on here. Earthy, floral, and a bit of west coast dank. Some citrus and light stone fruit.
Decent ipa, but nothing I’m super excited about.

Appearance: Pours a vibrant, but clouded medium-orange color with a white head. SRM of 11. (4.00)
Aroma: Huge aromas of pineapple, guava, mango, orange citrus. There is lingering airy pine. A hint of berry and melon. Nice complex aroma. (4.00)
Flavor: Flavor follows the nose with lots of pineapple, grapefruit citrus, and airy pine. There is some light berry. A reasonable bitterness comes through to balance a light caramel malt profile. Overall, it leans slightly bitter from the pine (4.00)
Feel: Medium-bodied. Strong carbonation. Has a orange juice and sprite type of body feel. Crisp and clean. Finishes with a bitter pine and orange juice pith astringency on the palate. (4.00)
Overall: A delicious complex IPA. Nice pithy orange juice but also a strong bitter pine presence. In addition there is some nice complex tropical flavors underneath. It blends OJ w/ bitter pine and strikes a nice balance. A well made IPA. 4's all around. (Final Rating: 4.00)

From a 12oz can:
Appearance: Cloudy orange, big head.
Smell: Nice tropical fruit aroma.
Taste: Moderate sweetness, pineapple, tropical fruit, nice body, mild bitterness in the finish.
Overall: Indeed's IPAs have been hit or miss with me, but I really like this one. Nice fruit flavor and enough bitterness to balance it out. Good stuff.

Pours a slight hazed golden color with a fresh white head. Smell of citrus and pine with notes of pineapple. Taste very citrus forward soft melon and some pineapple notes some sweet malts and caramel notes in the finish. Mouth feel was sweet with some bitterness pine resin in the finish. Not an Indeed fan ,this is however one of the best IPA/PA ive had from them.

L-Deep oak color...not hazy but definitely not clear.
S-Dark berries...a touch of pineapple...not jumping out at me like some..
T-More of a balanced flavor....toffee like malt, dark berries from the hops (kind of an Indeed signature)...a bit of tropical fruits mixed in.
F-Good girth....balanced.....drinks nicely.
O-Good solid workman like above average IPA but nothing extraordinary. This is good and I fear too many will find this too unexciting. It' well made and hearkens back to a time long, long ago....mid 2000's...
This is well made and I would recommend this.
