Picked this up when I was out in Indiana, before attending a Colts game. Dated 10/08/18 with "KICKOFF" written below that. This was the first beer that I had from Indiana City and it wasn't a bad New England IPA, as it came across more like an American Pale Ale. It was smooth, easy to drink, and checked off all the right boxes without being offensive or strong. For pregaming, this certainly hit the spot!
This had a golden hue to the pour as it was a bit hazy but certainly not cloudy. Not a lot of head topped this off as the lacing left behind was scattered in a thick ring near the top of my pint glass. The aroma was pleasant - light citrus, cracker, and pineapple with all of those coming through in the taste as well. Balanced and easygoing, there was plenty of bite here with enough fruit flavors to just leave me wanting a bit more.
There wasn't a lot of alcohol in this either as this almost felt like a session beer. Love the Colt-themed label and while this certainly wouldn't win any awards, I'd reach for it again during a tailgate or Sunday afternoon on the couch!

16oz can. Poured out a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, khaki-colored head of foam. It smelled of pineapple, orange, mango and caramel. Sweet tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a sharp bitterness.
