Trashy! Trashy looking head. It's for real! No lies. The head looks like foam off the river when the winds are high. lol Another amazing beer from Parallel 49!
Piney and tart, flavor crisp and clear.

Pours fairly hazy deeper yellow colour almost an amber tinge. Definitely a fruit forward flavour profile, but the malt is much more apparent in this than any other ipa i've tried. There is some sort of mid range vegetal or grassy taste that is unique to this brew, but not exactly pleasurable - is this what people call "barnyard"? The aftertaste isn't too bad, a bit of papaya type bitterness builds on the tongue. I was expecting a lot from this as their "craft pale ale" is perhaps my favourite pale ale, but this is not close to being my favourite ipa. It still gets a fairly high rating because it is a solid and somewhat unique version of harder to execute style.

Bit of a bitter finish but once again a drinkable beer from parallel 49. For the cheap cost i dub thee acceptable ! The 8 back mixer is something i purchase often due to the reasonable cost and drinkable brews.

Copper filtered with light carbonation and a finger of white head.
Smells of caramel, red plum and black tea.
The taste follows the nose.
Medium syrupy body with light carbonation.
I got this in Cranbrook BC and am drinking it in Redding Aug 30th, 2019. Second time, found it in Phuket Thailand, enjoying it here after setting up the tree with the kids and wife, Nov 23, 2021

A sharp, strong, easy-drinking IPA with a well balanced fruity demeanor. I drank the bottled version which poured well with a good head that dissipated quickly. The beer is a slightly opaque light amber, head off-white, with a pleasant, fruity nose which is also pronounced in the taste. The citrus notes balance the hoppy bitterness extremely well, neither is overpowering. This beer makes a fabulous encore to Driftwood's Fat Tug, but also follows Parallel 49's Ruby Tears Red particularly well.
