It’s that feeling of wiggling your toes, moving your ankles again, and exhaling….in a bottle. We call Loose Boots our “Apres IPA” ; theres always a reason to kick back at the end of any day; low alcohol, big hoppy punch. Lemon, lime and pine (read “alpine”) with a crisp malty backbone. Easy to drink while those memories and stories flow.

16oz can, part of a pick 6/pk. came to $1.67/can
Pours a slightly opaque gold with a foamy and pillowy white head
Mildly floral and fruity hop aroma
Taste follows, probably stronger and juicier with fresher hops
Light and a bit thin, but not bad otherwise.
Need to try again

It’s light and crisp with nice aroma and flavor profiles that were mostly citrusy with lemon, grapefruit, orange peel, tangerine, biscuit, tea leaf, dry floral hops, coriander, graham cracker and peppery spices.

I got a can of this beer from my good friend and old neighbor from the 'Wego. It poured a slightly hazy golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had subtle bitter citrus hops. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bitter tangerine and lemon flare. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Poured from can into tulip, good 2+ finger cream colored head, great retention and lacing. Pale hazy yellow in the glass, no floaties. Light on the nose, some grain and some citrus, nothing overpowering. Taste is initially sweat malt, then a pop of citrus(lemon/orange) and fades to a spicy dry finish. Not the best session IPA in the world, but man an easy drinker. This is a great beer to have multiples of in a setting. It won't tax your palate, yet quite enjoyable to drink

12 oz can with a 7 April 2021 canning date stamped on the bottom rim.
Appearance. Pours with a tall, creamy, durable, bright white head. The body is straw colored.
Feel. Lively, high carbonation but mild enough to work well with the light IPA.
Aroma. Hops with citrus and spicy notes over a subtle bready smell.
Flavor. Matches the aroma but, excepting the bitterness, mild for the style.
Mouthfeel. Smooth but lively carbonation in a light body.

Can from Hops and Bottles. Light golden body with a mild haze, small patchy head. Faint aroma, citrus. Taste follows with some lemony notes. Pretty lightweight all around.

Poured from a 12oz can with a canned on date of 10/5/19; into a pub glass.
Appearance- slightly hazy, with swirling bubbles that hold a thick, fluffy white head; lacing is decent!
Smell - mostly floral with a touch of stone fruit.
Taste- more profound floral and stone fruit flavor than what comes across in the nose!
Feel - not too light, bitter and flavorful!
Overall- I’m dropping the overall score on a technicality; this is very good, but for me, I look for a session to be under 5%, and this seasons version is right at 5%.
