6.2% ABV. Hopped with Strata only. Grains: Golden Promise. "Hazy India Pale Ale."
Pulpy yet thin, with a dull, insipid, and even watery finish. A bit raw maltwise, suffering from high residual sugars for the style. Vaguely citrusy and fruity, but I can't say it showcases Strata specifically all that well, which is a bit of a surprise given the style and premise of this beer specifically.
I don't think they achieved a top tier Strata single hopped turbid IPA if that's what they were going for, and speaking generally it's an underwhelming IPA with a rather high price. One of Odd13's worst beers to date.

Poured into a Tree House glass a pretty nice cloudy pale yellow color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger off-white head, which also leaves some pretty nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, papaya, guava), pretty nice diesel like. The taste is pretty nice, hoppy, malty, with a pretty nice citrus complex (orange, tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, mango, papaya, guava), pretty nice diesel like. Medium body, ABV is hidden pretty well, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall, this is a pretty tasty beer. Orange Julius! MilkShake! Addictive!

Single hop = Strata
Single malt = Golden Promise
Looks quite hazy with a light straw-white SRM. Head dissipates very quickly sadly. But strong aroma of guava and passion fruit. Absolutely amazing aroma, which follows into the flavor. Aftertaste is a bit vegetal. Mouthfeel is nice but a bit thin and chalky. Not much bitterness, but thankfully not cloying at all.
If everything was as mind blowing as the aroma, this beer would be off the charts. However it simply ends up being another good beer from Odd13.
