The bar for session IPAs is admittedly low. However, if you’re desperate for bigger hops in a low ABV package, you could certainly do worse than this. Relatively speaking, a great beer. I’d rather drink a full force IPA slowly any day, but for the style, Baby Diamonds is full grown.

16oz. can into a Surly teku.
Nose is citrus. Sugary with hints of starfruit and honey. Beer opens sweet. I get lychee, mango, clementines and starfruit. Some grassiness in the middle provides a little balance but it isn't much. Very muted bitterness. Body is light with ample carbonation. Prickly and aggressive in the mouth and goes down crisp and refreshing. Solid. Very drinkable.
A perfectly sessionable beer. Enjoyable and pretty packed with flavor for the ABVs.

Beautiful golden color with great head retention; huge peach, clementine, and apricot aromas; wonderful smooth body, satin texture. This is Other Half's best beer in my opinion.

Adept execution of session with full flavor and solid malt base & light medium body. Hard to pull off, but this delivers and is quite enjoyable.
